Reinforced concrete gas chamber (2)
Reinforced concrete gas chamber in the Nazi-operated Majdanek concentration camp, designed for killing prisoners by carbon monoxide, which was introduced through a tube, or Zyklon B (hydrogen cyanide), as evidenced by the residual blue coloring on the back wall and portions of the ceiling and side walls. The blue coloring is Prussian blue--iron(III) hexacyanoferrate(II), which has the chemical formula Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3 --a dark blue pigment produced by oxidation of ferrous ferrocyanide salts.
