Description

Inorganic compound, double salt of transitional metal vanadium, ammonium ion and inorganic sulfuric acid. From water solutions crystallizes as hexahydrate.

Precursors

Reduction of vanadyl sulfate with zinc

Chemical equation:

2(NH4)2SO4 + VOSO4 + Zn + H2SO4 = (NH4)2V(SO4)2 + (NH4)2Zn(SO4)2 + H2O;


For preparation of 100.00g of vanadium(II)-ammonium sulfate hexahydrate а 65.36g of vanadyl sulfate pentahydrate, 68.25g of ammonium sulfate and 16.89g of zinc is required.

Add to the flask with sulfuric acid a ammonium sulfate solution with stirring.Add acid solution to the flask, then add vanadyl sulfate and zinc pieces, shavings or powder and stir it until gas emission will stop.

This way creates mixed crystals with the Zn salt. Partitioned electrolysis may make pure compound or mixed crystals with the Mg salt. Solution is very sensitive towards air so paraffin oil is necessary to keep oxygen away.

Storage conditions

Keep in its original form or under several layers of varnish at average humidity and room temperature. Do not keep crystals near heaters.

Solubility

Insoluble in ethanol and acetone.
