CALCIUM IODIDE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white to light beige solid

Chemical Properties

Cadmium iodide is a crystalline solid

Uses

Calcium iodide, anhydrous is used as a drug in upper respiratory combinations, expectorants. And it is also used as Laboratory chemicals, Manufacture of substances.

Preparation

Strontium fluoride can be prepared by the reaction of strontium chloride with fluorine gas, or by action of hydrofluoric acid on strontium carbonate:
SrCl2 (aq)+ F2 (gas)→SrF2 (solid)+ Cl2 (gas)
SrCO3+ 2HF→SrF2+ CO2+H2O
Note that the first reaction depends upon the insolubility of SrF2 in water. Strontium fluoride is a water-insoluble source for use in oxygen-sensitive applications, such as metal production since it in nonhygroscopic.

Health Hazard

Exposures to cadmium iodide cause adverse health effects on the skin, blood, kidneys, and lungs. It causes irritation to the eyes and skin, and corrosive effects to the skin and is extremely hazardous in case of ingestion.

Toxicity evaluation

Exposures to cadmium iodide cause adverse health effects on the skin, blood, kidneys, and lungs. It causes irritation to the eyes and skin and corrosive effects to the skin. It is extremely hazardous in case of ingestion. The ACGIH and the NTP classified cadmium iodide as A2, meaning suspected for human carcinogen, and as Group 2, meaning reasonably anticipated human carcinogen, respectively.
