If you neutralise cadmium salt with sodium carbonate you will get cadmium carbonate. Cadmium carbonate is found in nature as Otavite mineral. I'm sure
that nobody will say that Otavite need to be neutralised and there is much more octavite on earth than a few grams...
I never asked for this.

Still irresponsible, as it'll leach readily if it ends up in an acidic environment (like a landfill). The sulfide is significantly more stable.

Just simply do not use large amount; one gram or so should be good for small experiments with dissolution, etc. Only use a large amount for synthesis
of cadmium compounds.
