Potassium Ferricyanide ACS

Potassium Ferricyanide ACS is a chemical compound that presents itself as a bright red salt. It is highly soluble in water and exhibits a yellow-green fluorescence. The creation of potassium ferricyanide involves passing chlorine through a solution of potassium ferrocyanide. This chemical compound has the formula K3[Fe(CN)6] and contains the octahedrally coordinated [Fe(CN)6]3− ion. It is commonly referred to as potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) or red prussiate. It is worth noting that potassium ferricyanide is light sensitive. The ACS (American Chemical Society) grade indicates a high level of purity suitable for laboratory and analytical purposes.
