Definition
A compound containing iron and cyanide, such as potassium ferrocyanide, which is used in photography, metal treatment, and food additives like anti-caking agents in salt.
Etymology
From 'ferro-' (iron) + 'cyanide' (from 'cyan-', Greek 'kyanos' meaning dark blue). The term developed in the 1800s as chemists synthesized and classified iron-cyanide compounds.
Kelly Says
Potassium ferrocyanide is added to table salt to prevent clumping—it's been safely used in food for over a century, and it's so stable that your body can't absorb the cyanide part!
