Description
Rubidium sulphate is an inorganic alkali-metal salt offered in the ROTI®METIC 99,8 % (2N₈) grade for specialised laboratory and materials applications. It is defined by CAS number 7488-54-2, empirical formula Rb₂SO₄ and a molar mass of 267 g/mol, giving a straightforward stoichiometric source of rubidium. Reported physical properties include a density of 3,613 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 1700 °C, supporting high-temperature and solid-state experimental work. The product is supplied as a 1 g pack in HDPE, appropriate for scarce alkali-metal reagents and precise small-scale dosing. This grade is available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the ROTI®METIC range, intended for users who need defined purity for research rather than bulk industrial feedstocks. Typical uses include crystal-growth and ceramic studies, specialty glass formulations, spectroscopic reference work and inorganic synthesis routes that incorporate rubidium. EG number 231-301-7 assists correct labelling and substance tracking. With its 2N₈ specification, compact 1 g HDPE presentation and clear identity data, this rubidium sulphate suits advanced research laboratories that require controlled alkali sulphate reagents in economical research quantities.

Questions about Rubidium sulphate, ROTI®METIC 99,8 % (2N8), 1 g, HDPE
What is this article?
Rubidium sulphate, ROTI®METIC 99,8 % (2N8), 1 g, HDPE is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Inorganic salts, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
An inorganic salt is an ionic solid, a chloride, a sulfate, a nitrate, a phosphate. The degree of hydration changes the mass that contains one mole of the ion. Analytical grade limits the foreign ions. A hydrate and the anhydrous salt are not interchangeable by weight.
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.
