Oxysalts naming

The names of the oxysalts are derived from those of the acids by drop ping the word acid, changing the termination of the other word from cm into th , or from tc into afe, and prefixing the name of the electro-positive element dr radical thus ... [Pg.100]

The names, baeic salts, suftsslts, and oxysalts have been applied indifferently to salts, such as the lead subacetates, which are compounds containing the normal acetate and the hydrate or oxide of lead and to alts such as the so-called bismuth sttbuitrate, which is a nitrate, not of bismuth, but of the univalent radical... [Pg.100]

The oxysalts are made up of a metal and an oxyradical. The names end in ate or ite, and may have the prefixes per or hypo. Generally, as a group, they do not react with water they dissolve in water. Some of the hypo-ites technically do react with water to release chlorine, but the reaction is mild. Oxysalts are oxidizers as a family they will release oxygen, which accelerates combustion if fire is present. Another hazard occurs when oxysalts dissolve in water and the water is soaked into another material, such as packaging or firefighter turnouts. Water will evaporate, and the oxysalt will be left in the material. If the material is then exposed to heat or fire, the material will bum rapidly because the oxysalt in the material accelerates the combustion. Nine oxysalt radicals will be presented with this group. There are other oxyradicals, but the ones chosen are considered most important to emergency response personnel. [Pg.90]

Name the following oxysalt compounds and balance the formulas if needed. (Any compounds with transition metals are balanced.)... [Pg.264]
