Sodium thiosulfate (25 kg)

Sodium thiosulfate

Sodium thiosulfate is a salt of sodium and thiosulfuric acid, which forms a pentahydrate crystalline hydrate. The substance exhibits strong reducing properties, is highly soluble in water, and slowly oxidizes in air.

The compound reacts with strong oxidizing agents and decomposes in reaction with acids, releasing sulfur dioxide. When the pentahydrate is heated to 48 degrees Celsius, the substance forms a supersaturated solution, dissolving in the water of crystallization. At 100 degrees it dehydrates.

Appearance

The substance has the form of transparent crystals; when crushed, it is a white powder.
