Potassium metarsenite

Barium Metarsenite, Ba(As02)3, may be obtained by warming barium chloride with a solution of ammonium arsenite to which acetic acid has been added until arsenious acid is on the point of precipitation. The precipitate is then dried at 100° C.2 It is a white powder, easily soluble in water, but it can also be obtained as a gelatinous mass 3 when a mixture of barium chloride and potassium metarsenite in solution is left to stand for a few hours. On strongly heating it decomposes to form arsenate and free arsenic, but to a much less extent than is the case with the orthoarsenite.4... [Pg.163]

Potassium Metarsenite, KAs02, is obtained in an impure form when potassium carbonate and the above diarsenite are boiled together in aqueous solution for several hours.1 A syrupy mass is obtained. That the metarsenite should exist has been shown 2 by results obtained in measuring the effect of the progressive neutralisation of arsenious acid by potassium hydroxide on the freezing point of aqueous solutions. [Pg.173]

Mercurous Metarsenite, HgAs02, separates as a yellowish precipitate when potassium tetrarsenite is gradually added to mercurous nitrate solution.6 The salt is dried at 125° C. It is unstable and is decomposed by excess of the alkali arsenite, by alkali hydroxides and by aqueous ammonia. [Pg.171]

Tin Arsenites.—Stannous Orthoarsenite, Sn3(As03)2.H20, was obtained by Stavenhagen 3 by adding a solution of arsenious oxide to a solution containing potassium ehlorostannite and potassium chloride. It may also be obtained 4 by the action of sodium metarsenite or potassium tetrarsenite on a solution of stannous chloride. It is a white amorphous powder, sparingly soluble in water, but readily dissolved by dilute acids and alkalis with separation of metallic arsenic. It is also soluble in excess of arsenious acid. [Pg.177]

Uranyl Metarsenite, U02(As02)2, is formed as a yellow precipitate when a solution of sodium metarsenite 2 or of potassium tetrarsenite 3 is added to one of uranyl nitrate. It is insoluble in ammonia, but dissolves readily in acids. On heating, it darkens in colour and decomposes. [Pg.178]

Zinc Orthoarsenite, Zn3(As03)2, is obtained7 as a white crystalline precipitate when aqueous arsenious acid is added to a solution of zinc sulphate containing ammonia and ammonium chloride precipitation occurs in the cold, an aggregate of crystalline needles being rapidly formed. A similar precipitate is thrown down by potassium orthoarsenite from a solution of zinc chloride in 50 per cent, alcohol,8 or from a solution of zinc sulphate by potassium tetrarsenite9 or sodium metarsenite.10 Zinc orthoarsenite dissolves readily in acids. It decomposes when heated. [Pg.178]
