The solid and solutions of concentration equal to or greater than 1 M are labelled TOXIC |
Dangerous with: No common problems.
Disposal: Add sodium sulfate solution to precipitate barium sulfate. This can be filtered off and placed in the normal refuse. Barium sulfate presents minimal hazards as it is insoluble.
