What Is Calcium Acetate?

Calcium acetate is the acetate salt of calcium, and its molecular formula is Ca (CH 3 COO) 2 or (CH3COO) 2Ca. The common name for calcium acetate is calcium acetate. Anhydrous calcium acetate has very good hygroscopicity, so common calcium acetate exists as monohydrate (Ca (CH 3 COO) 2 .H 2 O, CAS [5743-26-0]).
