Description
Gold shot ROTI®METIC 99,999 % (5N) is a high-purity elemental gold product presented as convenient shot for laboratory and materials-science applications. Identified by CAS number 7440-57-5 and the empirical formula Au, it has a molar mass of 196,97 g/mol, a density of 19,3 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 2800 °C. The 99,999 % (5N) purity level makes this grade suitable for analytical chemistry, thin-film and coating research, calibration standards and specialty inorganic synthesis where control of metallic impurities is critical. This ROTI®METIC material from manufacturer Carl ROTH fits workflows in catalysis studies, electronics materials development and precious-metal chemistry. Researchers and quality laboratories can rely on the defined composition and physical data when preparing gold-containing reagents, reference materials or experimental coatings under controlled conditions. Its high density and thermal stability further support high-temperature and vacuum-related laboratory work.

Questions about Gold shot, ROTI®METIC 99,999 % (5N), 1 g, plastic
What is this article?
Gold shot, ROTI®METIC 99,999 % (5N), 1 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Metals, elements & oxides, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
Metals, elements and oxides are the element itself or its oxide, sold as powder, shot, foil or wire. Purity and particle size are both the specification. A 99 percent powder and a 99.999 percent shot of the same element are different articles. Many are reactive to air or to water.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Inorganic chemicals. The sub-category is Metals, elements & oxides. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
