Sodium Nitrite CAS Number 7632-00-0, Molecular Formula: NaNO2, Molecular Weight: 69

Sodium Nitrite FCC Food Grade
NaNO2 Formula weight 69.00
INS: 250 CAS: [7632-00-0]

DESCRIPTION
Sodium Nitrite occurs as a white to slightly yellow, granular powder, or as white or nearly white, opaque, fused masses or sticks. It is hygroscopic in air. Its solutions are alkaline to litmus. One gram dissolves in 1.5 mL of water, but it is sparingly soluble in alcohol.
Function: Color fixative in meat and meat products; antimicrobial agent; preservative.

REQUIREMENTS
Identification: An aqueous solution gives positive tests for Sodium and for Nitrite.
Assay: Not less than 97.0% and not more than 100.5% of NaNO2 after drying.
Lead: Not more than 4 mg/kg.
Loss on Drying: Not more than 0.25%.

CHARACTERS
Appearance: Colourless crystals or mass or yellowish rods, hygroscopic.
Solubility: Freely soluble in water, soluble in alcohol.

IDENTIFICATION
A. Dilute 1 ml of solution S1 (see Tests) to 25 ml with water R. To 0.1 ml of the solution add 1 ml of sulphanilic acid solution. Allow to stand for 2-3 min. Add 1 ml of b-naphthol solution and 1 ml of dilute sodium hydroxide solution R. An intense red colour develops.
B. To 1 ml of the solution prepared for identification test A add 3 ml of a 20 g/l solution of phenazone and 0.4 ml of dilute sulphuric acid. An intense green colour develops.
C. To 0.15 ml of solution S1, add 0.35 ml of water R. The solution gives reaction of sodium.

TESTS
Solution S1: Dissolve 2.5 g in carbon dioxide-free water and dilute to 50 ml with the same solvent.
Solution S2: Dissolve 3 g in distilled water. Cautiously add 10 ml of nitric acid and evaporate to dryness. Dissolve the residue in 10 ml of distilled water R, neutralize with dilute sodium hydroxide solution and dilute to 30 ml with distilled water.
Appearance of solution: Solution S1 is clear and not more intensely coloured than reference solution.
Acidity or alkalinity: To 10 ml of solution S1, add 0.05 ml of phenol red solution. Add 0.1 ml of 0.01 M sodium hydroxide. The solution is red. Add 0.3 ml of 0.01 M hydrochloric acid. The solution is yellow.
Chlorides: Maximum 50 ppm.
Dilute 10 ml of solution S2 to 15 ml with water. The solution complies with the limit test for chlorides.
Sulphate: Maximum 200 ppm.
Heavy metals: Maximum 20 ppm.
Loss on drying: Maximum 1.0 per cent, determined on 1.000 g by drying in vacuum.

Sodium Nitrite USP
NaNO2 69.00
Nitrous acid, sodium salt --- [CAS 7632-00-0]

Sodium Nitrite contains not less than 97.0 percent and not more than 101.0 percent of NaNO2, calculated on the dried basis.

Identification: A solution of it responds to the tests for Sodium and for Nitrite.
Loss on drying: Dry it over silica gel for 4 hours: it loses not more than 0.25% of its weight.
Heavy metals: Dissolve 1 g in 6 mL of 3 N hydrochloric acid, and evaporate on a steam bath to dryness. Reduce the residue to a coarse powder, and continue heating on the steam bath until the odor of hydrochloric acid no longer is perceptible. Dissolve the residue in 23 mL of water, and add 2 mL of 1 N acetic acid: the limit is 0.002%.
Assay: Dissolve about 1 g of Sodium Nitrite, accurately weighed, in water to make 100.0 mL. Pipette 10 mL of this solution into a mixture of 50.0 mL of 0.1 N potassium permanganate VS, 100 mL of water, and 5 mL of sulfuric acid. When adding the Sodium Nitrite solution, immerse the tip of the pipette beneath the surface of the permanganate mixture. Warm the liquid to 40 , allow it to stand for 5 minutes, and add 25.0 mL of 0.1 N oxalic acid VS. Heat the mixture to about 80 , and titrate with 0.1 N potassium permanganate VS. Each mL of 0.1 N potassium permanganate is equivalent to 3.450 mg of NaNO2.

Chloride (Cl): 0.005%
Sulfate (SO4): 0.01%
Calcium (Ca): 0.01%

A jackal woke up early in the morning and went in to the plains. He looked at his long shadow in the rising morning sun and said to himself, "I must have a camel for my meal today".

He kept moving around till noon and it was getting hot and the jackal was tired. He was also hungry and thirsty. He looked at his small shadow in the mid-day sun. He murmered, "I was only joking about the camel, a mouse will do".
