Barium chloride (English name: Barium Chloride) is an inorganic salt compound with the chemical formula BaCl2 and a molecular weight of 208.23. The appearance is white powder, odorless, with a density of about 3.86 g/cm3, a melting point of 960 ℃, and a boiling point of 1560 ℃. It is easily soluble in water (37g/100g, 25 ℃), glycerol, and methanol, slightly soluble in hydrochloric acid and nitric acid, and difficult to dissolve in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether [3] [4] [6]. Barium chloride can undergo a precipitation induced metathesis reaction with some acids, bases, and salts, and can melt in an oxygen and carbon dioxide environment to produce barium carbonate
