Product Details
Introduction to Bismuth Subcarbonate CAS 5892-10-4:
Bismuth metacarbonate, also known as bismuth oxocarbonate or bismuth carbonate, is an inorganic compound that appears as a white or slightly pale yellow powder. It is odorless and tasteless. It gradually deteriorates upon exposure to light and decomposes into carbon dioxide and bismuth oxide when heated to 308°C. It is insoluble in water and ethanol but readily soluble in nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and concentrated acetic acid. It is soluble in ammonium chloride solution and slightly soluble in alkali metal carbonate solutions.
