| | Sodium molybdate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Sodium molybdate is the sodium salt of molybdic acid. It forms white, rhombic crystals that are sparingly soluble in water and insoluble in acetone. Crystallization from an alkaline aqueous solution (pH above 8) yields the dihydrate, which appears as white rhombohedral crystals with a relative density of 3.28. In this structure, the molybdate anion (MoO₄²⁻) exhibits a regular tetrahedral coordination. Upon heating to 100°C, the dihydrate loses two water molecules to form the anhydrous compound. The anhydrous form is readily soluble in water but insoluble in ethyl acetate.
Gradually acidifying a sodium molybdate solution to lower its pH induces the polymerization of molybdate ions, forming various polymolybdates such as sodium dimolybdate, trimolybdate, tetramolybdate, octamolybdate, and decamolybdate.
Although molybdenum can form compounds in oxidation states from zero to +6, only the hexavalent molybdate compounds are stable. The primary ore for producing molybdate raw materials is molybdenite (MoS₂). | | Uses | Sodium Molybdate is used in method for preparing fermentation medium with reduced color and viscosity. | | Uses | Sodium molybdate (Na2MO4) may be used as an electrolyte additive, for use in electrochemical capacitors. Addition of Na2MO4 as an electrolyte additive may result in enhanced capacitance, corrosion prevention and stabilized performance.
It may also be used as a catalyst during the manufacture of paints and dyes. | | Uses | Reagent in analytical chemistry, paint pigment,
production of molybdated toners and lakes, metal
finishing, brightening agent for zinc plating, corro-
sion inhibitor, catalyst in dye and pigment produc-
tion, additive for fertilizers and feeds, micronutri-
ent. | | Preparation | Sodium molybdate dihydrate, which is obtained by evaporating an aqueous solution of molybdenum trioxide and sodium hydroxide, can be converted to the anhydrous form by heating at 100 °C. | | Definition | ChEBI: Sodium molybdate (anhydrous) is an inorganic sodium salt having molybdate as the counterion. It has a role as a poison and a NMR chemical shift reference compound. It contains a molybdate. | | General Description | Sodium molybdate has corrosion resistant properties. On heating, it undergoes degradation and releases Na2O fumes. | | Hazard | Irritant. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Non flammable | | reaction suitability | reagent type: catalyst
core: molybdenum | | Agricultural Uses | Sodium molybdate (NazMoO4-2H2O), which is an
important molybdenum source, is applied along with
other fertilizers or as a foliar spray (with 39%
molybdenum). Sodium molybdate is the sodium salt of
molybdic acid. Fusing molybdenum oxide with sodium
carbonate or hydroxide makes sodium molybdate.
Molybdenum is an essential component of the enzyme
nitrate reductase which catalyzes the conversion of
nitrate (NO3-) to nitrite (NO2-). It is also a component of
the nitrogenase enzyme involved in nitrogen fixation by
root nodule bacteria of leguminous crops. Soaking seeds
in sodium molybdate solution (made with slurry or dust)
before sowing is an effective seed treatment. Sodium
molybdate, the most commonly used fertilizer supplying
molybdenum, is used as foliar spray, or in mixed
fertilizers. It is also used in seed treatment. | | Biological Activity | sodium molybdate is an acid phosphatase inhibitor. the osteoclastic acid phosphatase isoenzyme, secreted by osteoclasts, is a member of a widely-distributed class of iron-containing proteins with acid phosphatase activity. elevated plasma isoenzyme levels are associated with increased bone turnover in metabolic disease. by inhibiting this class of acid phosphatases, sodium molybdate is capable of abolishing bone resorption. in addition, sodium molybdate has been shown to stabilize the nonactivated glucocorticoid-receptor complex.1. zaidi m, moonga b, moss dw, et al. inhibition of osteoclastic acid phosphatase abolishes bone resorption. biochemical and biophysical research communications, 1989, 159(1): 68-71.2. denis m, wikström ac, gustafsson ja. the molybdate-stabilized nonactivated glucocorticoid receptor contains a dimer of mr 90,000 non-hormone-binding protein. journal of biological chemistry, 1987, 262(24): 11803-11806. | | Safety Profile | Poison by
