Barium chlorate hazardous waste. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lists barium chlorate as hazardous. Barium chlorate Barium chlorate, Ba(ClO), is a white crystalline solid, the barium salt of chloric acid. It is an irritant and toxic, as are all soluble barium compounds. It is sometimes used in pyrotechnics to produce a green color. It also finds use in the production of chloric acid. Barium chlorate can be produced through a double replacement reaction between solutions of barium chloride and sodium chlorate: On concentrating and chilling the resulting mixture, barium chlorate precipitates. This is perhaps the most common preparation, exploiting the lower solubility
Barium acetate the words "barium acetate" in hopes of preventing future "copycat" crimes. The print media, and a 2014 episode of the crime documentary series "Redrum", have not been so circumspect. Also named as the choice poison of a teen's murder of her father in Deadly Women "Parents Peril", S6 E2. Barium acetate Barium acetate (Ba(CHO)) is the salt of barium(II) and acetic acid. Barium acetate is generally produced by the reaction of acetic acid with barium carbonate: The reaction is performed in solution and the barium acetate crystallizes out. Alternatively, barium sulfide can be used: Again, the solvent is evaporated off
