Overview

Hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) (CAS 7784-40-9) is an inorganic lead-arsenic compound with significant toxicological properties and specialized industrial applications. This chemical substance, also identified by EC number 232-064-2, represents a complex inorganic compound combining lead and arsenic elements in a specific stoichiometric arrangement. With a molecular formula of AsHO4Pb and molecular weight of 347 g/mol, hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) exhibits characteristics typical of heavy metal compounds, requiring stringent handling protocols due to its hazardous nature. The compound presents significant health and environmental hazards, classified under multiple danger categories including carcinogenicity (Carc. 1A), reproductive toxicity (Repr. 1A), and acute toxicity (Acute Tox. 3). These classifications necessitate the use of GHS08, GHS06, and GHS09 pictograms, with "Danger" as the signal word. The substance also poses considerable environmental risks, classified as Aquatic Acute 1 and Aquatic Chronic 1, indicating severe and long-lasting effects on aquatic ecosystems. Transportation falls under ADR class 6.1, reflecting its toxic properties and requiring specialized logistics procedures. Unlike some related toxic compounds such as N-methylaniline or phenylhydrazine, this lead-arsenic compound demands particularly rigorous containment measures due to the combined toxicity profiles of both heavy metals involved. Industrial applications typically include specialized metallurgical processes, certain catalytic systems, and specific research applications where the unique properties of combined lead and arsenic chemistry are required. These applications are generally limited to highly controlled industrial environments with appropriate safety infrastructure. OYSI provides hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) to qualified industrial customers with comprehensive safety documentation and regulatory compliance support.

This substance has a molecular weight of 347 g/mol and represents a combination of lead cations with arsenic acid derivatives. It is classified as extremely hazardous due to its carcinogenic and reproductive toxicity properties, requiring strict handling protocols in industrial applications.

What are the physicochemical properties of hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+)?

Hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) is a solid inorganic compound at room temperature with a molecular weight of 347 g/mol. As a lead-arsenic compound, it typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder. The substance is generally poorly soluble in water but may dissolve in acidic solutions. Its exact melting point and density depend on the specific crystalline form and purity of the material.

What is hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) used for?

Hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) is primarily used in specialized industrial applications requiring lead-arsenic compounds. Due to its extreme toxicity classification (Carc. 1A, Repr. 1A), its use is heavily restricted and typically limited to research applications, analytical chemistry standards, or highly specialized industrial processes under strict regulatory control. Most commercial applications have been phased out due to health and environmental concerns.

How to handle hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) safely?

Hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) requires maximum safety precautions due to its acute toxicity and carcinogenic properties. Essential PPE includes respiratory protection (P3 filter), chemical-resistant gloves, protective clothing, and eye protection. Work must be conducted in well-ventilated areas or fume hoods. Avoid inhalation, skin contact, and ingestion. Regular health monitoring is mandatory for workers handling this substance due to its STOT RE 2 classification.

How to store hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) correctly?

Hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) must be stored in tightly sealed, labeled containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials. Storage areas should be secured and accessible only to trained personnel due to its carcinogenic and reproductive toxicity. Keep away from acids, bases, and oxidizing agents. Storage facilities must comply with local regulations for carcinogenic substances and include appropriate spill containment measures.

What to do in case of contact with hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+)?

Immediate action is critical due to the substance's acute toxicity. For skin contact, remove contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly with soap and water for at least 15 minutes. If inhaled, move to fresh air immediately and seek medical attention. For eye contact, flush with water for 15 minutes. Never induce vomiting if ingested. Seek immediate medical attention in all cases and inform medical personnel of the substance's carcinogenic and toxic properties.

How to dispose of hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) appropriately?

Hydrogen arsorate;lead(2+) must be disposed of as hazardous waste through licensed waste management companies due to its carcinogenic properties and environmental toxicity (Aquatic Acute 1, Aquatic Chronic 1).
