General Description
Solid.
Air & Water Reactions
Irradiation of aqueous solutions of the compound will liberate hydrocyanic acid.
Reactivity Profile
AMMONIUM IRON (III) HEXACYANOFERRATE (II) is an inorganic cyanide. Inorganic cyanides react slowly with water to evolve gaseous hydrogen cyanide (HCN). Acids cause the rapid evolution of HCN; carbon dioxide from the air is sufficiently acidic to liberate HCN from solutions of cyanides. Inorganic cyanides are incompatible with isocyanates, nitrides, and peroxides. Cyanides have been known to initiate polymerization reactions of epoxides. Cyanides form compounds with metal salts; heat and hydrogen production may accompany these reactions. Some cyanides can detonate when exposed to shock, heat, or friction. In the presence of strong acids or acid fumes may release highly toxic fumes of cyanides.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data for AMMONIUM IRON (III) HEXACYANOFERRATE (II) are not available. AMMONIUM IRON (III) HEXACYANOFERRATE (II) is probably combustible.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 25869-00-5 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,5,8,6 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 25869-00:
(7*2)+(6*5)+(5*8)+(4*6)+(3*9)+(2*0)+(1*0)=135
135 % 10 = 5
So 25869-00-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
