Описание

The hexahydrate is better described as hexaaquacobalt(II) nitrate, [Co(OH2)6][NO3]2, as it consists of discrete [Co(OH2)6]2+ and [NO3]− ions. Above 55 °C, the hexahydrate converts to the trihydrate and at higher temperatures to the monohydrate. Cobalt Nitrate Hexahydrate uses in manufacture of cobalt pigments and invisible inks, decorating stoneware and porcelain, preparation of catalysts, production of vitamin B12 supplements.
