Is Na2S2O3 a mixture?

Sodium thiosulfate is an inorganic sodium salt composed of 2:1 mixture of sodium and thiosulfate ions.

Is sodium thiosulfate an acid?

Thiosulfuric acid (as sodium thiosulfate) has the chemical name thiosulfuric acid, disodium salt, pentahydrate. The chemical formula is Na2S2O3•5H2O and the molecular weight is 248.17.

How is sodium thiosulfate made?

Thiosulfate is produced by the reaction of sulfite ion with elemental sulfur, and by incomplete oxidation of sulfides (pyrite oxidation), sodium thiosulfate can be formed by disproportionation of sulfur dissolving in sodium hydroxide (similar to phosphorus).

Is sodium thiosulfate covalent or ionic?

It is an ionic compound composed of two sodium cations (Na+) and the negatively charged thiosulfate anion (S2O3-), in which the central sulfur atom is bonded to three oxygen atoms and another sulfur atom, all through single and double bonds with resonance character. The solid exists in a monoclinic crystal structure.

Is sodium thiosulfate conductive?

CNT and GNP Nano-fillers added in a mass fraction of 1, 3, 5 and 7\% in Sodium Thiosulfate Pentahydrate. Thermal conductivity of the composite containing: 7\% GNP was 2.944 W/m.k with 155.33\% enhancement, in the other hand, thermal conductivity of the composite containing: 7\% CNT was 4.031 W/m.k with 249.61\% enhancement.

Is Na2S2O3 ionic or covalent?
