Where? It is not in my Acros chemical book, and I cannot find a CAS number for it. I have been looking for this for months now and have come up empty handed. > > > There is a white powdery deposit that appears now and then under certain > conditions. > If the electrodes are very close to the bottom and no stirring is used, > you get that white deposit on one side, a black spot on the other side > under the electrode that turns black and shiny metallic plateout in between. Does that happen when ppm goes beyond 10 or so? I believe the solubility is low, but between 10 and 20 ppm (which many chemists call insoluable).
