Acid–base equilibria HCl hydrochloric acid In aqueous solution, acids dissociate and equilibrium is set up.

  • Product Stewardship Summary Hydrobromic Acid
    1801 U.S. Highway 52 West West Lafayette, IN 47906 +1-765-497-6100 +1-800-428-7947 Product Stewardship Summary Hydrobromic Acid Hydrobromic acid is a versatile chemical that is used by a number of different industries. Among its many uses, hydrobromic acid is utilized as a flux material in soldering materials, as an activator to make certain plastics, and as a chemical intermediate. It is also a raw material for the manufacture of oil field salts, useful in food safety applications, and a reactant in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals. Hydrobromic acid is a liquid made by dissolving hydrogen bromide gas in water. Because the hydrogen bromide used to make hydrobromic acid is a pressurized gas, it has different hazards than this product and has its own Product Stewardship Summary. (For more information see the Product Stewardship Summary for Anhydrous Hydrogen Bromide). Hydrobromic acid offered by Great Lakes Solutions can be produced in various concentrations, but the most common contains 48% hydrogen bromide in water. It is a clear, near water-white to yellow colored liquid with a characteristic acrid odor. Chemical Identity: Hydrobromic acid is identified by several names, all of them referring to the same chemical product. These names include: • HBr (commonly 48% HBr) • CAS Number [10035-10-6] • Aqueous hydrogen bromide, aqHBr • Hydrogen bromide aqueous solution • Example: Hydrogen bromide, 48%; • Hydrobromic acid Production: The gaseous hydrogen bromide used to make hydrobromic acid is derived from either the burning of bromine and hydrogen in a specially designed furnace or as an off-gas from a bromination reaction where it is a co-product.

  • Properties of Acids and Bases
    GREEN CHEMISTRY LABORATORY MANUAL Lab 22 Properties of Acids and Bases TN Standard 4.2: The student will investigate the characteristics of acids and bases. Have you ever brushed your teeth and then drank a glass of orange juice? hat do you taste when you brush your teeth and drink orange juice afterwards. Yuck! It leaves a really bad taste in your mouth, but why? Orange juice and toothpaste by themselves taste good. But the terrible taste W results because an acid/base reaction is going on in your mouth. Orange juice is a weak acid and the toothpaste is a weak base. When they are placed together they neutralize each other and produce a product that is unpleasant to taste. How do you determine what is an acid and what is a base? In this lab we will discover how to distinguish between acids and bases. Introduction Two very important classes of compounds are acids and bases. But what exactly makes them different? There are differences in definition, physical differences, and reaction differences. According to the Arrhenius definition, acids ionize in water to + produce a hydronium ion (H3O ), and bases dissociate in water to produce hydroxide ion (OH -). Physical differences can be detected by the senses, including taste and touch. Acids have a sour or tart taste and can produce a stinging sensation to broken skin. For example, if you have ever tasted a lemon, it can often result in a sour face. Bases have a bitter taste and a slippery feel. Soap and many cleaning products are bases.

  • Hydrogen Bromide (CAS #10035-10-6) Information for the Public
    Revised June 2005 Hydrogen Bromide (CAS #10035-10-6) Information for the Public What is hydrogen bromide? Hydrogen bromide is a colorless, or sometimes faint yellow, highly toxic gas with a sharp, irritating odor. It can also be found as a liquid, either as hydrobromic acid (hydrogen bromide dissolved in water) or as a compressed gas under pressure (anhydrous hydrogen bromide). It is an extremely dangerous substance and must be handled with caution as it can cause severe health effects and death. Hydrogen bromide can react violently when mixed with some chemicals, metals or water, forming a flammable, explosive gas. When hydrogen bromide is released into indoor air, dangerous levels will be reached very quickly. The gas is heavier than air and can travel to low- lying or confined areas. Containers of hydrogen bromide may explode when heated. How is hydrogen bromide used? Hydrogen bromide is used to make chemicals and drugs, as a solvent and as a veterinary drug. Before working with hydrogen bromide, employee training should be provided on proper safe handling and storage procedures. How can people be exposed to hydrogen bromide? Significant exposure usually occurs in the industries where hydrogen bromide is produced or used. Heating, pouring, spraying, spills and evaporation create conditions that increase the risk of employee exposure. Though unlikely, the general population may be exposed by breathing contaminated air or by drinking contaminated water from a facility using or storing hydrogen bromide, by skin or eye contact with the gas or liquid, or by eating food that has been contaminated with hydrogen bromide.
