Mercury(II) sulfide Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
Fine, bright-scarlet powder.Insoluble in water and
alcohol.
Cinnabar, HgS, cherry red crystal to 5 mm among snow white rhombic dolomite, CaMg(CO3)2. Wanshan mine, Tongren Pref., Guizhou prov., China.
Uses
Mercury(II) sulfide is used in paint, sealing wax and preservatives.
Definition
cinnabar: A bright red mineralform of mercury(II) sulphide, HgS,crystallizing in the hexagonal system;the principal ore of mercury. Itis deposited in veins and impregnationsnear recent volcanic rocks andhot springs. The chief sources includeSpain, Italy, and Yugoslavia.
Air & Water Reactions
Readily oxidized as to be pyrophoric in air [Bretherick 1979. p. 120].
Reactivity Profile
Inorganic reducing agents, such as MERCURY(II) SULFIDE, react with oxidizing agents to generate heat and products that may be flammable, combustible, or otherwise reactive.
Hazard
Highly toxic by ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption.
Health Hazard
Acute poisoning can result from inhaling dust concentrations of 1.2-8.5 mg/m 3 in air; symptoms include pain and tightness in chest, coughing, and difficulty in breathing. If ingested, toxicity depends on release of t he Hg ++ ion; chronic mercury poisoning can cause kidney, mental, and nervous disturbances. Dust irritates eyes and frequently causes allergic dermatitis; absorption through skin can cause systemic poisoning.
