About This Product
Copper nitrate solutions are used to teach copper(II) ion behaviour, nitrate salts and solution concentration. The hydrate form changes the molecular weight and appearance, so the form on the label is identified before weighing. Goggles, gloves and a lab coat are worn, only the needed quantity is taken with a clean, dry spatula, and the reagent is never used in pyrotechnic or fuel mixtures. The Laboratory Reagent Copper Nitrate is available for supply within India and for export to Central African Republic, South Korea, Uganda, Fiji and Mozambique.
Frequently Asked Questions
