METALS/METAL HYDRIDES TEST KIT

Hydrogen gas is produced when active metals and metal hydrides (including boron hydrides) react with suitable hydrolytic solvents. The hydrogen gas displaces the water in the graduated burette which allows for quantitative measurement.


The metals and metal hydrides which can be analyzed include:
  • Sodium and lithium as dispersions in mineral oil
  • Borane-tetrahydrofuran and borane-methyl sulfide complexes
  • 9-BBN
  • K-Selectride
  • Lithium aluminum hydride
  • Diisobutylaluminum hydride
Components:
  1. Septum-inlet flask, 250mL
  2. Graham condenser, 300mm
  3. Vacuum adapter
  4. Cold-trap top with stopcock
  5. Cold-trap bottom (dry ice/acetone)
  6. Trap flask, 250mL
  7. Graduated burette, 250mL with 1mL graduations
  8. Leveling bulb, 250mL
  9. Thermometer adapter
  10. Non-mercury thermometer, total immersion, 0 to 230°F
  11. PVC flexible tubing
