The compound has a molar mass of 58,04 g/mol, a density of 1,27 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 104 °C. Packed as 100 ml in plastic, this 40 % (w/w) preparation is used in European Pharmacopoeia reagent applications, including test-solution work that specifies glyoxal at the stated concentration. It belongs to the Reagents 4.1.1 range associated with reagents and volumetric standard solutions (Ph. Eur.) in analytical and quality-control laboratories. Molar mass, density and boiling point support identification and routine handling of the reagent. Laboratories that follow Ph. Eur. monographs can use this grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH when glyoxal 40 % (w/w) is required. With CAS 107-22-2 and formula C₂H₂O₂, the 100 ml plastic unit provides a practical quantity for preparing pharmacopoeial reagents while remaining consistent with the declared concentration, chapter assignment and physicochemical data.
