Application

Bismuth(III) chloride serves as a versatile compound utilized mainly for its ability to produce the "bismuth white" pigment upon reacting with water. This white deliquescent solid can be synthesized through the direct combination of bismuth and chlorine. When dissolved in excess dilute hydrochloric acid, it forms a clear solution, but upon dilution, it precipitates bismuth(III) chloride oxide, known as bismuthyl chloride. This behavior highlights its role in chemical reactions as a reversible reaction example and as a confirmatory test for bismuth in quantitative analysis. The compound is primarily used as a catalyst, with its core component being bismuth.
