Description
Silver nitrate solution R₂ is a pharmacopoeia reagent of Reag. Ph. Eur. quality, defined in Chapter 4.1.1 under designation 1078302. It contains silver nitrate with empirical formula AgNO₃, CAS number 7761-88-8 and EG number 231-853-9; the molar mass is 169,88 g/mol. The aqueous preparation shows a density of approximately 1 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 100 °C. Offered as a 1 l fill in glass, the solution is intended for laboratories that apply European Pharmacopoeia reagents and volumetric standard solutions rather than preparing the reagent in-house. Physical identity and chapter assignment support use wherever Silver nitrate solution R₂ is required by a monograph or in-house method aligned with Ph. Eur. Chapter 4.1.1. The 1 litre glass pack from manufacturer Carl ROTH has a weight of 1,400 kg and is presented as a ready-to-use liquid chemical for pharmaceutical analysis, quality control and related analytical work. Formula, CAS registry number and molar mass allow direct comparison with pharmacopoeial specifications for AgNO₃-based reagents, while the glass bottle format suits routine dispensing on the laboratory bench.
