Nitrito de sodio

Sodium nitrite (NaNO₂) is an inorganic salt produced by the combination of nitrite ions and sodium ions. Sodium nitrite is easily delixable, easily soluble in water and liquid ammonia, its aqueous solution is alkaline, its pH is about 9, slightly soluble in ethanol, metanol, Éter y otros disolventes orgánicos.. Sodium nitrite has a salty taste and is used to make fake salt. Sodium nitrite reacts with oxygen to form sodium nitrate when exposed to air. If heated above 320 ° C, it decomposes to produce oxygen, nitrogen oxide and sodium oxide. Contact with organic matter is easy to burn and explode. Because of its salty taste and cheap price, it is often used as an unreasonable substitute for salt in illegal food production, because sodium nitrite is toxic, and food containing industrial salt is very harmful to the human body and carcinogenic.
