Mars, chloride salts

Salts Compounds formed by the union of acids and bases, by the action of alkalies upon metals, or by the direct union of elements. The term is often incorporated in the common name of salts used as pharmaceuticals bitter salts, epsom salt, or Seidlitz salt (magnesium sulfate), preparing salt (sodium stannate), Preston s salts (ammonium chloride), Rochelle salt or Seignette s salt (potassium and ammonium tartrate), salt of Mars (ferrous sulfate), salt of Saturn (lead acetate), salt of tartar (potassium carbonate), salt of tin (stannous chloride), salt of wisdom (mercury bichloride and ammonium chloride), sore-throat salt (fused potassium nitrate), vinegar salts (calcium acetate), and vomiting salt (zinc sulfate). The term is also applied to some acids, such as salt of lemon or sour salt (citric acid), salt of sorrel (oxalic acid), and spirit of salt (muriatic acid). ... 

Most solid surfaces are marred by small cracks, and it appears clear that it is often because of the presence of such surface imperfections that observed tensile strengths fall below the theoretical ones. For sodium chloride, the theoretical tensile strength is about 200 kg/mm [136], while that calculated from the work of cohesion would be 40 kg/mm [137], and actual breaking stresses are a hundreth or a thousandth of this, depending on the surface condition and crystal size. Coating the salt crystals with a saturated solution, causing surface deposition of small crystals to occur, resulted in a much lower tensile strength but not if the solution contained some urea.

Mars black is one of the mars pigments ( .v.), developed during the eighteenth century and manufactured by the aqueous precipitation of iron salts (sulfates, chlorides, nitrates and acetates) with an alkali (hme, caustic soda (NaOH), potash, etc.). The starting point was the production of mars yellow, a synthetic form of the iron oxide hydroxide occurring naturally as goethite.
