  2. Hygroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygroscopy

    Hygroscopic substances include cellulose fibers (such as cotton and paper), sugar, caramel, honey, glycerol, ethanol, wood, methanol, sulfuric acid, many fertilizer chemicals, many salts and a wide variety of other substances. [5] If a compound dissolves in water, then it is considered to be hydrophilic. [6]

  3. Weighing bottle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighing_bottle

    Flat boat dish is an oblong, flat-bottomed dish, in which it is easy to weigh out the substance, and then move it the reaction chamber, but is not recommended for hygroscopic or air-reactive samples. A tall-shaped dish - it is elongated, oblong, flat-bottomed dish, used when the solid is transferred without a funnel. Other types

  4. Lithium perchlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_perchlorate

    Lithium perchlorate is also used as an electrolyte salt in lithium-ion batteries.Lithium perchlorate is chosen over alternative salts such as lithium hexafluorophosphate or lithium tetrafluoroborate when its superior electrical impedance, conductivity, hygroscopicity, and anodic stability properties are of importance to the specific application. [11]

  5. Bismuth (III) sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth(III)_sulfate

    Bismuth(III) sulfate is an inorganic chemical compound of bismuth with the formula Bi 2 (SO 4) 3. It is a hygroscopic white solid that decomposes at 465 °C to bismuth(III) oxysulfate and is isotypic to antimony(III) sulfate .

  6. Lithium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_hydroxide

    Lithium hydroxide is an inorganic compound with the formula LiOH. It can exist as anhydrous or hydrated, and both forms are white hygroscopic solids. They are soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol. Both are available commercially. While classified as a strong base, lithium hydroxide is the weakest known alkali metal hydroxide.

  7. γ-Butyrolactone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Γ-butyrolactone

    γ-Butyrolactone (GBL) or gamma-butyrolactone is an organic compound with the formula O=CO(CH 2) 3. It is a hygroscopic, colorless, water-miscible liquid with a weak characteristic odor. It is the simplest 4-carbon lactone. It is mainly used as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. [5]

    Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK, 4-methylpentan-2-one) is an organic compound with the condensed chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 C(O)CH 3. This ketone is a colourless liquid that is used as a solvent for gums, resins, paints, varnishes, lacquers, and nitrocellulose.

  9. Caesium fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesium_fluoride

    A hygroscopic white salt, caesium fluoride is used in the synthesis of organic compounds as a source of the fluoride anion. [5] The compound is noteworthy from the pedagogical perspective as caesium also has the highest electropositivity of all commonly available elements and fluorine has the highest electronegativity.
