Reactivity Alerts
- Strong Reducing Agent
Air & Water Reactions
Water soluble.
Fire Hazard
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic fumes
Behavior in Fire: Can emit toxic metal fumes and oxides of sulfur. (USCG, 1999)
Behavior in Fire: Can emit toxic metal fumes and oxides of sulfur. (USCG, 1999)
Health Hazard
INHALATION: Joint and muscle pains, headache, dizziness, and insomnia. Weakness, frequently of extensor muscles of hand and wrist (unilateral or bilateral). Heavy contamination - Brain damage. Stupor progressing to coma - with or without convulsion, often death. Excitation, confusion, and mania less common. Cerebrospinal pressure may be increased. INGESTION: Abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, loss of appetite, muscular weakness, headache, blue line on gums metalic taste, nausea and vomiting, joint and muscle pain. (USCG, 1999)
Reactivity Profile
Inorganic reducing agents, such as LEAD THIOSULFATE, react with oxidizing agents to generate heat and products that may be flammable, combustible, or otherwise reactive.
Belongs to the Following Reactive Group(s)

The
Physical Property fields
include properties such as vapor pressure and
boiling point, as well as explosive limits and
toxic exposure thresholds
The information in CAMEO Chemicals comes from a variety of
data sources.
Note: For Vapor Density and Specific Gravity, comparing the value to 1.0 can tell you if the chemical will likely sink/rise in air or sink/float in fresh water (respectively). Short phrases have been added to those values below as an aid. However, make sure to also consider the circumstances of a release. The Vapor Density comparisons are only valid when the gas escaping is at the same temperature as the surrounding air itself. If the chemical is escaping from a container where it was pressurized or refrigerated, it may first escape and behave as a heavy gas and sink in the air (even if it has a Vapor Density value less than 1). Also, the Specific Gravity comparisons are for fresh water (density 1.0 g/mL). If your spill is in salt water (density about 1.027 g/mL), you need to adjust the point of comparison. There are some chemicals that will sink in fresh water and float in salt water.
