CAS: 15829-53-5 
EINECS: 239-934-0 
Molecular Formula: Hg2O
Formula Weight: 417.1794 g/mol
Molecular Structure:

General Description: Black or brownish-black powder. Not a true compound but rather an intimate mixture of metallic mercury and mercuric oxide. Insoluble in water and denser than water (density 9.8 g / cm3). Hence sinks in water.
Air & Water: Reactions Insoluble in water.
