Chemical Structure

Potassium CAS 7757-79-1 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an inorganic composition, Potassium is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 101.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO supplies Potassium (CAS 7757-79-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula NO3K, MW 101.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures Potassium under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
