Sodium sulfite (sodium sulphite) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na 2 SO 3.A white, water-soluble solid, it is used commercially as an antioxidant and preservative.
Sodium sulfide is a chemical compound with the formula Na 2 S, or more commonly its hydrate Na 2 S·9H 2 O.Both the anhydrous and the hydrated salts in pure crystalline form are colorless solids, although technical grades of sodium sulfide are generally yellow to brick red owing to the presence of polysulfides and commonly supplied as a crystalline mass, in flake form, or as a fused solid.
Sulfurous acid is commonly known to not exist in its free state, and due to this, it is stated in textbooks that it cannot be isolated in the water-free form. [4] However, the molecule has been detected in the gas phase in 1988 by the dissociative ionization of diethyl sulfite. [5]
Sodium bisulfite (or sodium bisulphite, sodium hydrogen sulfite) is a chemical mixture with the approximate chemical formula NaHSO 3.Sodium bisulfite is not a real compound, [2] but a mixture of salts that dissolve in water to give solutions composed of sodium and bisulfite ions.
Sodium bisulfate, also known as sodium hydrogen sulfate, [a] is the sodium salt of the bisulfate anion, with the molecular formula NaHSO 4.Sodium bisulfate is an acid salt formed by partial neutralization of sulfuric acid by an equivalent of sodium base, typically in the form of either sodium hydroxide (lye) or sodium chloride (table salt).
Portion of the structure of [Ni(SO 2) 6](AsF 6) 2, showing the dication and one of two AsF 6 − anions. [2]Sulfur dioxide forms complexes with many transition metals. Most numerous are complexes with metals in oxidation state 0 or +1.
The decahydrate of sodium sulfate is known as Glauber's salt after the Dutch–German chemist and apothecary Johann Rudolf Glauber (1604–1670), who discovered it in Austrian spring water in 1625.
Solutions of bisulfite are typically prepared by treatment of sulfur dioxide with aqueous base: [3]. SO 2 + OH − → HSO − 3. HSO − 3 is the conjugate base of sulfurous acid, (H 2 SO 3).
