Sodium bromide.dihydrate NaBr

Sodium bromide [7647-15-6] NaBr, the most common and available alkali bromide, is a salt of hydrobromic acid (see Bromine COMPOUNDS). Sodium bromide crystallizes from aqueous solution as a di ydj 2LX.e[13466-08-5] NaBr-2H20, below 51 C. Above 51°C, it crystallizes as the anhydrous compound. Crystals of the dihydrate belong to the monoclinic system and have lattice parameters a = 659 pm, b = 1020 pm, and c = 651 pm. The anhydrous crystal belongs to the cubic system, a = 596 pm. Other physical properties of the anhydrous salt are Hsted in Table 1. The anhydrous salt is hygroscopic but not dehquescent.
