Barium hydroxide Uses

 Barium hydroxide (CAS NO.17194-00-2) is used in analytical chemistry for the titration of weak acids, particularly organic acids as analytical reagent, but also used to separate and manufacture of precipitated barium sulfate salts and used in organic synthesis as a strong base. And under the name baryta it is used in homeopathic remedies and it is also used to clean up acid spills.

Barium hydroxide Production

 Barium hydroxide (CAS NO.17194-00-2) can be prepared by dissolving barium oxide (BaO) in water.
   BaO + 9H2O → Ba(OH)2·8H2
It decomposes to barium oxide when heated to 800°C. Reaction with carbon dioxide makes barium carbonate. Its aqueous solution, being highly alkaline, undergoes neutralization reactions with acids. Thus, it forms barium sulfate and barium phosphate with sulfuric and phosphoric acids, respectively. Reaction with hydrogen sulfide produces barium sulfide. Precipitation of many insoluble, or less soluble barium salts, may result from double decomposition reaction when a barium hydroxide aqueous solution is mixed with many solutions of other metal salts.
