PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL INFORMATION
Physical State; Appearance COLOURLESS-TO-WHITE HYGROSCOPIC CRYSTALLINE POWDER. Physical dangers Chemical dangers Decomposes above 160°C . This produces ammonia, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. The solution in water is a weak acid. Attacks mild steel. Contact with hot water may cause formation of large amounts of steam. Reacts with acids and strong oxidants.	Formula: H₆N₂O₃S / NH₄OSO₂NH₂ Molecular mass: 114.1 Decomposes at 160°C Melting point: 131°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.8 Solubility in water: very good Vapour pressure at 20°C: negligible
