Barium chloride, reaction with sodium

BARIUM CYANIDE (542-62-1) Violent reaction with sodium nitrite. Reacts, possibly violently, with metal chlorates, fluorine, magnesium, mercurous chloride, nitrates, nitrites, nitric acid, perchlorates, strong oxidizers. Forms sensitive explosive mixtures with potassium chlorate. Corrosive to metals, especially in the presence of moisture. 

Barium sulfate precipitates (solubility rule 6) when a solution of barium chloride reacts with a solution of sodium sulfate. The other product of the reaction, NaCl, is soluble and does not precipitate ... 

Barium nitrate is prepared by reaction of BaCO and nitric acid, filtration and evaporative crystallization, or by dissolving sodium nitrate in a saturated solution of barium chloride, with subsequent precipitation of barium nitrate. The precipitate is centrifuged, washed, and dried. Barium nitrate is used in pyrotechnic green flares, tracer buUets, primers, and in detonators. These make use of its property of easy decomposition as well as its characteristic green flame. A small amount is used as a source of barium oxide in enamels. 

Barium nitrite [13465-94-6] Ba(N02)2, crystallines from aqueous solution as barium nitrite monohydrate [7787-38-4], Ba(N02)2 H2O, which has yellowish hexagonal crystals, sp gr 3.173, solubihty 54.8 g Ba(NO2)2/100 g H2O at 0°C, 319 g at 100°C. The monohydrate loses its water of crystallization at 116°C. Anhydrous barium nitrite, sp gr 3.234, melts at 267°C and decomposes at 270 °C into BaO, NO, and N2. Barium nitrite may be prepared by crystallization from a solution of equivalent quantities of barium chloride and sodium nitrite, by thermal decomposition of barium nitrate in an atmosphere of NO, or by treating barium hydroxide or barium carbonate with the gaseous oxidiation products of ammonia. It has been used in diazotization reactions. 

When a substance made up of ions is dissolved in water, the dissolved ions behave independently. That is, they undergo their own characteristic reactions regardless of what other ions may be present. For example, barium ions in solution, Ba2, always react with sulfate ions in solution, S04 , to form an insoluble ionic compound, BaS04(s), no matter what other ions are present in the barium solution. If a solution of barium chloride, BaCK, and a solution of sodium sulfate, Na S04, arc mixed, a white solid, barium sulfate, is produced. The solid can be separated from the solution by filtration, and the resulting solution contains sodium chloride, just as it would if solid NaCl were added to water. In other words, when the two solutions are mixed, the following reaction occurs ... 

The removal of inorganic salts from reaction mixtures afforded by polymeric materials may be simply and effectively accomplished by dialysis,166 178 after decomposition of remaining periodate with ethylene glycol130 131 or butylene glycol. 161 170 Alternatively, the iodate and periodate ions may be removed as such, or after reduction to free iodine. The iodate and periodate ions have been effectively precipitated by means of sodium carbonate plus manganous sulfate,6 or by lead dithionate,191 barium chloride,24 192 193 strontium hydroxide194 202 or barium hydroxide,203 204 lead... 

However, a gravimetric procedure might still be used if a chemical reaction is employed to convert the analyte to another chemical form that is both able to be separated cleanly and able to be weighed accurately. In the example of determining sodium sulfate in the presence of sodium chloride, one can dissolve the mixture in water and precipitate the sulfate with barium chloride to form barium sulfate. Sodium chloride would not react. 

Cyclododecene may be prepared from 1,5,9-cyclododecatriene by the catalytic reduction with Raney nickel and hydrogen diluted with nitrogen, with nickel sulfide on alumina, with cobalt, iron, or nickel in the presence of thiophene, with palladium on charcoal, with palladimn chloride in the presence of water, with palladium on barium sulfate, with cobalt acetate in the presence of cobalt carbonyl, and with cobalt carbonyl and tri- -butyl phosphine. It may also be obtained from the triene by reduction with lithium and ethylamine, by disproportionation, - by epoxidation followed by isomerization to a ketone and WoliT-Kishner reduction, and from cyclododecanone by the reaction of its hydrazone with sodium hydride. ...
