It is commonly used as a food preservative, antioxidant, and disinfectant. </font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><br /></font></div><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4">Here are some key properties and uses of sodium metabisulfite: </font></h2><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><strong>1. Chemical Structure: </strong>The compound consists of sodium ions (Na+) and the metabisulfite ion (S2O52-).</font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><strong>2. Appearance: </strong> It is typically found as a white or yellowish crystalline powder.</font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><strong>3. Solubility: </strong>Sodium metabisulfite is soluble in water. When dissolved in water, it releases sulfur dioxide (SO<sub>2</sub>), which contributes to its antimicrobial properties.</font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><font size="4"><strong>4. Antioxidant and Preservative: </strong> It is often used in the food and beverage industry as a preservative and antioxidant to extend the shelf life of products.
