CADMIUM NITRATE AR TETRAHYDRATE
admium nitrate describes any of the related members of a family of inorganic compounds with the general formula {\displaystyle {\ce {Cd(NO3)2.{\mathit {x}}H2O}}} the most commonly encountered form being the tetrahydrate.
Thermal dissociation at elevated temperatures produces cadmium oxide and oxides of nitrogen. When hydrogen sulfide is passed through an acidified solution of cadmium nitrate, yellow cadmium sulfide is formed.
When with caustic soda solution, cadmium oxide forms precipitate of cadmium hydroxide. Many insoluble cadmium salts are obtained by such precipitation reactions.
