Sodium dihydrogen arsenate Sodium dihydrogen arsenate Sodium dihydrogen arsenate is the inorganic compound with the formula NaHAsO. Related salts are also called sodium arsenate, including NaHAsO (disodium hydrogen arsenate) and NaHAsO (sodium dihydrogen arsenate). Sodium dihydrogen arsenate is a colorless solid that is highly toxic. The salt is the conjugate base of arsenic acid: In the laboratory, it is prepared in this way, crystallizing from a hot saturated aqueous solution, where it is highly soluble when hot (75.3 g in 100 mL at 100 °C). It is obtained as the monohydrate. Upon heating, solid NaHAsOHO, loses water of crystallization and converts to the
Beryllium oxide Beryllium oxide Beryllium oxide (BeO), also known as beryllia, is an inorganic compound with the formula BeO. This colourless solid is a notable electrical insulator with a higher thermal conductivity than any other non-metal except diamond, and exceeds that of most metals. As an amorphous solid, beryllium oxide is white. Its high melting point leads to its use as a refractory material. It occurs in nature as the mineral bromellite. Historically and in materials science, beryllium oxide was called glucina or glucinium oxide. Formation of BeO from beryllium and oxygen releases the highest energy per mass of reactants for any
