Ferrous ammonium sulfate, also known as ammonium iron(II) sulfate or Mohr's salt, is a double salt with the formula (NH₄)₂Fe(SO₄)₂·6H₂O. It appears as pale green crystals with a crystalline structure and is soluble in water. This compound is valued for its role in analytical chemistry as a reagent for iron and sulfate ion determination. In laboratory settings, it serves as a reducing agent and catalyst in various chemical reactions. Ferrous ammonium sulfate is also used in industrial processes, particularly in the production of iron oxide pigments and as a mordant in dyeing textiles. Additionally, it finds application in wastewater treatment to precipitate phosphates. While generally safe when handled properly, it should be managed cautiously due to its potential toxicity to aquatic life and harmful effects if ingested or inhaled.
