Properties:Copper nitrate is blue crystal. It's easy in moisture absorption. It will be degraded when heated at 170°C. It is apt to dissolve in water and ethanol. The aqueous solution is acidity. Copper nitrate is a strong oxidizer which can cause burning or explosive if heated, rubbed or striked with combustible materials. It will produce the poisonous and stimulating nitrogen oxide gas while burning. It is stimulate to skin.
