• Properties Ammonium iron(II) sulfate hexahydrate, also known as Mohr's salt, is an inorganic compound that's often used as a laboratory reagent. It's a double salt of ferrous sulfate and ammonium sulfate, and contains the cations Fe2+ and NH4+. The salt is easily crystallized, and its crystals resist oxidation by air, giving it a long shelf life. This stability extends to solutions, where the ammonium ions make them slightly acidic, which slows down oxidation. Sulfuric acid can also be added to solutions to reduce oxidation. Ammonium iron(II) sulfate hexahydrate has many applications, including: Analytical chemistry: As a preferred source of ferrous ions Fricke's dosimeter: Used to measure high doses of gamma rays Synthesis: As a precursor to synthesize iron oxide nanoparticles, which can be used as a catalyst for wastewater treatment Redox flow batteries: As a negative electrolyte to develop vanadium/iron redox flow batteries Dye modification: To modify methyl orange dye through a metal insertion reaction, which can then be used as a light harvester in dye-sensitized solar cells Nano-titania catalysts: As a dopant to prepare nano-titania catalysts, which can be activated by visible light Purification: In studies to assess the catalytic effect of iron in the purification of single-walled carbon nanotubes Trace amounts: In studies to determine trace amounts of Se(IV) in seawater
