Product Name: Sodium Acetate
Molecular Formula: C2H3NaO2
Molecular Weight: 82.03
CAS No.: 127-09-3
Description
Sodium acetate occurs as colorless, transparent crystals or as granular, crystalline or white powder. It is hygroscopic in nature and easily soluble in water. It is usually odourless but when heated to decomposition its smells like vinegar or acetic acid.
It is a sodium salt of acetic acid. It is also called Acetic acid, sodium salt or Sodium acetate anhydrous. Sodium acetate along with an alkyl halide like bromoethane can be used to form an ester.
