Hydrochloric Acid, Reagent, ACS
Hydrochloric Acid, Reagent, ACS, is an essential chemical for laboratories and industries requiring precise analytical work. This clear, colorless, and highly corrosive solution comprises hydrogen chloride dissolved in water, characterized by its sharp pungent odor. As a monoprotic acid and a member of the six main strong mineral acids, Hydrochloric Acid is noted for its stability in oxidation-reduction reactions, making it invaluable for various applications.
This reagent-grade Hydrochloric Acid is recognized for its superior quality and is specifically formulated to meet stringent quality standards essential for laboratory and analytical work. The ACS (American Chemical Society) grade signifies that this reagent exceeds the regulatory benchmarks for purity, making it a reliable choice for your chemical analysis needs.
Key Features:
- High purity and quality, meeting ACS standards.
- Effective acidifying reagent for various chemical processes.
- Facilitates the dissolution of basic compounds to form chlorides for analysis.
- Commonly utilized in chemical analysis, sample preparation, and pH adjustment.
