Description
Silver nitrate is an analytical-grade silver salt supplied at a minimum purity of 99,9 % p.a., with empirical formula AgNO₃ and CAS number 7761-88-8. The molar mass is 169,88 g/mol, density 4,35 g/cm³, and boiling point 440 °C, providing clear physicochemical reference points for solution preparation and stoichiometric work. Product data from manufacturer Carl ROTH list EG nr. 231-853-9, supporting identity checks in purchasing and quality systems. High stated purity and defined constants help laboratories maintain consistent reagent performance across analytical methods. Store protected from light as appropriate for silver salts and follow standard laboratory practice for oxidising inorganic reagents during weighing and dissolution.
This article is part of Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), in Solvents.

Questions about Silver nitrate, min. 99,9 %, p.a., 50 g, plastic
What is this article?
Silver nitrate, min. 99,9 %, p.a., 50 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Analytical grade solvents (p.a.), inside Solvents, in Lab chemicals.
An analytical-grade solvent, often marked p.a., has impurity limits tight enough for classical analysis and for preparing reagents. It is not automatically low enough in UV absorbance for HPLC, and it is not dry enough for a water-sensitive reaction. The grade is the purchase.
A solvent dissolves. The grade says which impurities are low enough for the method. Analytical grade is the ordinary pure solvent. HPLC and LC-MS grades limit the absorbance and the ions that would become peaks or background. A dry solvent has had water removed. A deuterated solvent is for NMR, where the hydrogen signal would otherwise drown the sample. Technical grade is for cleaning and for synthesis that does not need a chromatogram. Identity is on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Hazards follow ECHA, the CLP Regulation and REACH.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Solvents. The sub-category is Analytical grade solvents (p.a.). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are HPLC & LC-MS grade solvents, Dry & deuterated solvents (NMR, synthesis), Technical & synthesis grade solvents and Green & alternative solvents.
What should I check before I order?
