Molecular Formula: Cu(NO3)2• 3H2O
Molecular Weight: 241.6
Physicochemical Properties: Copper nitrate trihydrate is a dark blue columnar crystal. It’s easy in moisture absorption. Specific Density: 2.05, Melting Point: 114.5° C. It will be degraded when heated at 170° C. It is apt to dissolve in water and ethanol. The aqueous solution is acidity. Cupric nitrate is a strong oxidizer which can cause burning or explosive if heated, rubbed or striked with combustible materials. It will produce the poisonous and stimulating nitrogen oxide gas while burning. It is stimulate to skin.
Applications and Usages: Copper nitrate is used as catalyst, oxidizer, activating agent for luminescent powder, and photosensitive resistance materials.
