Calcium perchlorate is a chemical compound, a perchlorate salt with the molecular formula Ca(ClO4)2. It is commonly encountered as tetrahydrate.
Contents
Properties
Chemical
Calcium chlorate is a strong oxidizer. It will react with sulfuric acid to release perchloric acid, while calcium sulfate is precipitated.
Physical
Calcium perchlorate is a white hygroscopic salt, soluble in water, ethanol and methanol.
Availability
Calcium perchlorate is difficult to purchase from suppliers, being a perchlorate.
Preparation
Calcium perchlorate can be prepared by mixing a supersaturated solution of sodium perchlorate and calcium chloride.
- 2NaClO4 + CaCl2 → Ca(ClO4)2 + 2 NaCl
Calcium perchlorate is less soluble than sodium chloride and will crystallize from solution. Cooling the solution increases yield.
Projects
- Make concentrated perchloric acid
Handling
Safety
Calcium perchlorate is a strong oxidizer, but its hygroscopicity makes it less powerful. It is toxic if consumed.
Storage
In closed and sealed bottles, away from any organic material or strong mineral acid.
Disposal
Calcium perchlorate can be destroyed with metallic iron under UV light, in the absence of air.[3]
