Description
Benzoic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid supplied at a minimum purity of 99,5 % and conforming to Ph.Eur., USP and BP pharmacopoeia quality. It is identified by CAS number 65-85-0 and the empirical formula C₇H₆O₂, with a molar mass of 122,12 g/mol and a density of 1,321 g/cm³. The boiling point is 249 °C and the flash point is 121 °C, giving clear physical reference data for laboratory handling and documentation. This grade is Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the material belongs to the range of chemicals specified to Ph.Eur., USP, BP and related monographs. EG number 200-618-2 supports regulatory identification alongside the CAS designation. Defined molar mass, density, boiling point and flash point values help laboratories plan storage, weighing and process steps with consistent, monographed material for analytical, formulation and quality-control work.

Questions about Benzoic acid, min. 99,5 %, Ph.Eur., USP, BP, 500 g, plastic
What is this article?
Benzoic acid, min. 99,5 %, Ph.Eur., USP, BP, 500 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
