About Cupric Chloride Anhydrous Lab Grade
Cupric Chloride, also known as Copper(2+) Chloride, Copper Dichloride, Copper Bichloride,
and Dichlorocopper, has the chemical formula CuCl2. In anhydrous form, it appears as a
yellowish-brown crystalline solid. Whereas, its dihydrate appears as a green crystalline powder
with no odor. It is soluble in Water, Alcohol, and Acetone at ambient conditions. When heated
to decomposition, it emits toxic fumes of Hydrogen Chloride gas and Copper Oxides. It can be
produced either by the reaction of Copper with Chlorine or by combining Copper Carbonate
with Hydrochloric Acid. Chemically pure or Laboratory reagents are the two terms often used
to describe Lab Grade chemicals. Lab Grade chemicals do not meet any accepted quality or
purity requirements such as the ACS Grade, the USP Grade, and the FCC Grade, despite their
acceptable purity. In the United States of America (USA), Lab Alley is selling its high-quality
