| Common Name | Cobalt sulfate |

| Description | Cobalt sulfate, also known as cobalt brown or COSO4, belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as transition metal sulfates. These are inorganic compounds in which the largest oxoanion is sulfate, and in which the heaviest atom not in an oxoanion is a transition metal. The salts are paramagnetic.It forms by the reaction of metallic cobalt, its oxide, hydroxide, or carbonate with aqueous sulfuric acid. Cobalt sulfate is an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, cobalt sulfate has been detected, but not quantified in, alcoholic beverages. This could make cobalt sulfate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. For these purposes, the cobalt sulfate is produced by treating cobalt oxide with sulfuric acid. Cobalt sulfate is formally rated as a possible carcinogen (by IARC 2B) and is also a potentially toxic compound. Cobalt(II) sulfate is any of the inorganic compounds with the formula CoSO4(H2O)x. Properties, preparation, and structure Cobalt(II) sulfate heptahydrate appears as red monoclinic crystals that liquify around 100 °C and become anhydrous at 250 °C. Hydrated cobalt(II) sulfate is used in the preparation of pigments, as well as in the manufacture of other cobalt salts. Upon inhalation of salts, there is some evidence for carcinogenicity. |
