CoAsS, are also used as sources. The ore is roasted and Co is precipitated as the hydroxide and then reduced to Co with carbon (hep below 417 - C, cep to m.p.). The metal is silvery white and readily polished. It dissolves in dilute acids and is slowly oxidized in air. Adsorbs hydrogen strongly. The main use of cobalt is in alloys. Cobalt compounds are used in paints and varnishes, catalysts. Cobalt is an essential element in the diet. World production 1976 32 000 tonnes metal. 

M Preparation of isopropyiidene peniciiiamine hydrochioride To the filtrate obtained In step (b) is added at 20°C to 25°C a total of 85 g of hydrogen sulfide. The precipitated HgS is filtered off and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to a volume of 200 to 500 ml. Following e polish filtration, the product-rich concentrate is mixed with 1.5 liters of isobutyl acetate. The mixture is refluxed at about 40 C under reduced pressure in equipment fitted with a water separation device. When no further water separates, the batch is cooled to 30t and filtered. The reactor is washed with 1 liter of acetone, which Is used also to wash the cake. The cake is further washed with 200 ml of acetone. The acetone washes are added to the isobutyl acetate filtrate and the mixture is refluxed for 20 to 30 minutes. After a holding period of one hour at 5°C, the crystals of isopropyiidene penicillamine hydrochloride are filtered and washed with 200 m of acetone. On drying for twelve hours at 25°C this product, containing 1 mol of water, weighs about 178 g (73%). 

Isopropyl alcohol is the main ingredient in rubbing alcohol It can decompose into acetone (the main ingredient in nail polish remover) and hydrogen gas according to the following reaction ... 

Fig. 4.3 SEM micrograph of the rear side of an n-(lOO) Si wafer polished on one side. The presence of inverted truncated square pyramidal stmctures fuUy covering the surface can be observed. This pyramidal texturing was attributed to the combination of anisotropic etching of the sdicon and to hydrogen bubbles evolved during the etching reaction.

A nitric acid/hydrogen fluoride/glycerol mixture used as a chemical metal polish detonated after three days in storage. 

A mixture of 80 cm3 of nitric acid, 80 cm3 of hydrogen fluoride and 240 cm3 of glycerine was used to polish a metal. It was stored after treatment. It detonated three days later. Did the metal that was found in what was left of this mixture after the accident play a role In the detonation (reaction (3)) ... 

A metal polishing fluid of a similar composition that contained propane-1,2-diol, nitric acid, hydrogen fluoride and silver nitrate detonated thirty minutes after being used. 

Methanol gives rise to an explosive mixture with phosphoric acid and hydrogen peroxide if the proportion of peroxide is too high. This mixture is used to polish metals. 

A lactic acid/hydrogen fluoride/nitric acid mixture is used to polish metals. It is unstable and autocatalytic. After storing it for twelve hours the temperature rises to 90°C and there is significant gas release. Therefore such mixtures should not be kept. 

Cathode surface the hydrogen overvoltage is smaller on rough unpolished surfaces than on smooth, shining, polished surfaces. 

Solid metal electrodes are usually polished mechanically and are sometimes etched with nitric acid or aqua regia. Purification of platinum group metal electrodes is effectively achieved also by means of high-frequency plasma treatment. However, electrochemical preparation of the electrode immediately prior to the measurement is generally most effective. The simplest procedure is to polarize the electrode with a series of cyclic voltammetric pulses in the potential range from the formation of the oxide layer (or from the evolution of molecular oxygen) to the potential of hydrogen evolution (Fig. 5.18F).

Evaporation of an ethereal solution of hydrogen peroxide gave a residue of which a drop on a platinum spatula exploded weakly on exposure to flame. When the sample (1-2 g) was stirred with a glass rod (not fire polished), an extremely violent detonation occurred.
