Bromate, sodium

The stability of the halate(I) ion decreases, as expected, from C10 to 10 and only the chlorate(I) ion can be considered reasonably stable even in aqueous solution. Solid sodium bromate(I). NaBrO (with five or seven molecules of water of crystallisation) can be obtained, but on standing or warming it disproportionates ... 

Principle. An organic compound which contains chlorine is mixed with sodium peroxide and ignited in a closed metal bomb. The chlorine is thus converted to sodium chloride, and after acidification the chloride is estimated by the Volhard volumetric method. Bromine and iodine, when constituents of organic compounds similarly treated, are converted largely into sodium bromate and iodate respectively these ions are therefore subsequently reduced by hydrazine to bromide and iodide ions, and estimated as before. 

Neutralizing Lotion. The principal active ingredient of cold wave neutralizers is usually an oxidizing agent. The most popular is hydrogen peroxide [7722-84-1J, employed at a concentration of 1—2% it continues to find widespread use. Aqueous solutions of sodium bromate [7789-38-0] at a concentration of 10—20% occasionally are used and are technically preferred over the peroxide formulations because of excellent stabiUty and absence of hair bleaching. Neutralizing powders appear to be on the decline but formulations stiU in use consist of sodium perborate [7632-04-4] combined with hexametaphosphates to improve solubiUty in hard water. 

Oxidation. Oxidation of the -amyl alcohols produces aldehydes, which after continued oxidation can yield acids. This route to aldehydes has httle merit. However, oxidative esterifications with alkah metal hypohaUtes (eg, calcium chlorite, Ca(OCl)2) (49), bromates (eg, sodium bromate, NaBrO )... 

V-Bromosuccinimide and A/,A7-dibromo-5,5-dimethyIhydantoin have also been used successhdly, which makes possible recycling of succinimide or the hydantoin and utilizes all the bromine atoms. A mixture of sodium bromide—sodium bromate in aqueous acid has also been used commercially. 

Halothiophenes. The biomothiophenes, coimneicially the most impoitant of the halothiophenes, are readily made and can be further derivatized. Manufacture of 2-bromothiophene involves the reaction of thiophene with a solution of sodium bromide/sodium bromate in acid solution. 

The temperature must be kept low during the reaction to prevent formation of sodium bromate. 

There is convincing experimental evidence for the following important statement. To a degree of approximation satisfactory for most analytical work, the mass absorption coefficient of an element is independent of chemical or physical state. This means, for example, that an atom of bromine has the same chance of absorbing an x-ray quantum incident upon it in bromine vapor, completely or partially dissociated in potassium bromide or sodium bromate in liquid or solid bromine. X-ray absorption is predominantly an atomic property. This simplicity is without parallel in absorptiometry. 

Derivations of the Citrosolve process use the addition of ammonium bifluoride in the first stage and later the addition of sodium bromate as an improvement over air or sodium nitrite. 

Catalytic Ce(IV) reagent combined with an additional oxidant such as sodium bromate oxidizes hydroquinones, catechols, and their derivatives to quinones in aqueous acetonitrile (e.g., Eq. 7.18).43... 

Write formulas for each of the following compounds (a) sodium bromide, (b) sodium bromate, (c) sodium bromite, (d) sodium hypobromite, and (e) sodium perbromate. 

A bearing assembly from a sodium bromate crusher had been degreased at 120°C, and while still hot the sleeve was hammered to free it. The assembly exploded violently, probably because of the presence of a hot mixture of sodium bromate and a grease component (possibly a sulfurised derivative). It is known that mixtures of bromates and organic or sulfurous matter are heat- and friction-sensitive [1]. The energy of decomposition of the likely components has been calculated as 1.93 kJ/g, with an explosion temperature above 2000°C [2],...

Fires have been caused by accidental contact in the pocket between the red phosphorus in the friction strip on safety-match boxes and potassium chlorate tablets. Addition of a little water to a mixture of white or red phosphorus and potassium iodate causes a violent or explosive reaction. Addition of a little of a solution of phosphorus in carbon disulfide to potassium chlorate causes an explosion when the solvent evaporates. The extreme danger of mixtures of red phosphorus (or sulfur) with chlorates was recognised in the UK some 50 years ago when unlicenced preparation of such mixtures was prohibited by Orders in Council.

A typical polarographic recording is shown in Fig. 2.1 curve (a) is the po-larogram obtained for chlorinated seawater analysed immediately after chlorination. Identical traces were observed for non-chlorinated seawater and for chlorinated seawater kept in the dark for periods up to 24 h at temperatures up to 40 °C, which indicates a lack of bromate formation under these conditions (BrC>3 < 10 7 M, less than 0.5% conversion of chlorine). Addition of copper sulfate to give a cupric ion concentration in the seawater of 100 parts per billion did not induce measurable bromate production in the dark. Curve (b) was obtained from a chlorinated (4.9 mg/1) seawater solution that was exposed to full sunlight for 70 min. Curve (c), which is offset by 0.4 pA with respect to curves (a) and (b), shows the presence of 1.0 x 10 5 M sodium bromate in seawater. 

Solutions of 10 5 sodium bromate in seawater were also titrated by using the residual oxidants procedure. The results show that only about 5% of the added bromate appears as residual oxidants. Thus, the apparent residual oxidants remaining after exposure to sunlight could be completely due to bromate. 

The increase of bromide in the cell-liquor is a result of recycling all of the bromine in the plant. Almost all bromine leaves the plant via the cell-liquor as bromide. The remaining quantity of sodium bromate in the cell-liquor has not changed (8 mg kg-1).

When large amounts of copper deposits in boiler mbes cannot be removed with hydrochloric acid due to the relative insolubility of copper, ammonia-based oxidizing compounds have been effective. Used in a single separate stage, the ammonia sodium bromate step includes the introduction into the boiler system of solutions containing ammonium bromate to rapidly oxidize and dissolve the copper. 

Table 6 presents a summary of toxic and classical pollutants detected in three common cleansing solutions ammoniacal sodium bromate, hydrochloric acid without copper complexer, and hydrochloric acid with copper complexer.
