Calcium nitrate are inorganic compounds with the formula Ca(NO 3) 2 (H 2 O) x. The anhydrous compound, which is rarely encountered, absorbs moisture from the air to give the tetrahydrate. Both anhydrous and hydrated forms are colourless salts.
Calcium nitrate, known chemically as Ca(NO 3) 2, is a key compound extensively used in various industries. Often termed as lime nitrate or Norwegian saltpeter, calcium nitrate holds significant importance due to its multifaceted applications.
Calcium nitrate reacts with ammonium phosphate to yield ammonium nitrate and calcium phosphate, which is shown in the following equation: 3Ca (NO 3) 2 + 2 (NH 4) 3 PO 3 → 6NH 4 NO 3 + Ca 3 (PO 3) 2.
It can be prepared by neutralizing nitric acid with calcium carbonate and crystallizing it from solution as the tetrahydrate Ca (NO 3) 2.4H 2 O, which exists in two monoclinic crystalline forms (α, r.d. 1.9; β, r.d. 1.82). There is also a trihydrate, Ca (NO 3) 2.3H 2 O.
calcium nitrate. Formula: CaN 2 O 6. Molecular weight: 164.088. IUPAC Standard InChI:InChI=1S/Ca.2NO3/c;2*2-1 (3)4/q+2;2*-1 Copy. IUPAC Standard InChIKey:ZCCIPPOKBCJFDN-UHFFFAOYSA-N Copy. CAS Registry Number: 10124-37-5.
The calcium nitrate formula unit dissociates into one calcium ion and two nitrate ions, because the \(2+\) charge of each calcium ion requires two nitrate ions (each with a charge of \(1-\)) to form an electrically neutral compound.
