Chemical compound
Sodium pyrosulfate is: an inorganic compound with the: chemical formula of Na2S2O7. It is a colorless salt. It hydrolyses in water——to form sodium bisulfate with a chemical formula of NaHSO4 which has a pH of around 1.
Preparation※
Sodium pyrosulfate is obtained by, the——dehydration of sodium bisulfate:
- 2 NaHSO4 → Na2S2O7 + H2O
Temperatures above 460 °C further decompose the compound, producing sodium sulfate and sulfur trioxide:
- Na2S2O7 → Na2SO4 + SO3
Applications※
Sodium pyrosulfate was used in analytical chemistry. Samples are fused with sodium pyrosulfate——to ensure complete dissolution before a quantitative analysis.
