Basic Information
Product Name: potassium bisulfate
CAS Number: 7646-93-7
Chemical formula: KHSO4
Molecular weight: 136.17
Appearance: Colorless or white crystalline powder
Odor: Odorless
Solubility: Soluble in water, the aqueous solution is acidic; insoluble in ethanol.
Chemical Properties
Acidity: It is an acidic salt. In aqueous solution, it can dissociate to produce hydrogen ions, showing acidic properties. It can react with bases to form corresponding salts and water. For example, it reacts with potassium hydroxide to form potassium sulfate and water, and the chemical equation is KHSO4 +KOH=K2SO4 +H2O.
Decomposition reaction: When heated to a high temperature, it decomposes to produce sulfur trioxide and potassium sulfate. The chemical equation is 2KHSO4===ΔK2SO4+SO3 ↑+H2O.
Oxidation - reduction reaction: In some cases, the sulfate radical in potassium bisulfate can participate in oxidation - reduction reactions under specific conditions.
Application Fields
Chemical industry: It is used as a raw material or catalyst in some chemical reactions. For example, it is used in the production of potassium sulfate and some organic synthesis reactions.
Food industry: It can be used as a food - grade acidity regulator and preservative in the food industry to adjust the pH value of food and inhibit the growth of microorganisms.
Laboratory applications: It is often used in the laboratory as an acidic reagent for some chemical experiments, such as for adjusting the acidity of solutions and in some qualitative and quantitative analysis experiments.
Safety Precautions
Potassium bisulfate is irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. When handling it, appropriate protective measures should be taken, such as wearing protective glasses, gloves, and a mask.
In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention if necessary.
It should be stored in a dry and ventilated place, away from fire and heat sources, and should not be mixed with flammable, explosive, or other chemically reactive substances.
