Description
Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate is an extra pure inorganic salt with a minimum assay of 98 %, CAS number 13477-34-4 and EG number 603-865-8. Its empirical formula is Ca(NO₃)₂ · 4 H₂O, with a molar mass of 236,15 g/mol and a density of 1,82 g/cm³. The tetrahydrate provides a soluble calcium and nitrate source for analytical chemistry, materials preparation, and general laboratory formulation work. This grade comes from manufacturer Carl ROTH for laboratories needing calcium nitrate tetrahydrate at a defined extra pure level. Typical applications include nutrient or process solutions, precipitation and synthesis steps, and educational or research protocols that call for a crystalline Ca(NO₃)₂ hydrate. Documented molar mass and density support precise weighing and concentration calculations. Use the material within established laboratory procedures and handle nitrates with appropriate care. Always consult the safety data sheet for storage, personal protection, and disposal requirements associated with this calcium nitrate salt.

Questions about Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate, min. 98 %, extra pure, 500 g, plastic
What is this article?
Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate, min. 98 %, extra pure, 500 g, plastic 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.
