HYDROBROMIC ACID >33% IN ACETIC ACID

Description:

Hydrobromic acid (HBr) is a strong acid formed by the dissolution of hydrogen bromide in water. The specific formulation "HYDROBROMIC ACID >33% IN ACETIC ACID" indicates a concentrated solution of hydrobromic acid mixed with acetic acid, which serves as a solvent. This mixture is characterized by its corrosive nature, capable of reacting vigorously with bases and certain metals, releasing hydrogen gas. The presence of acetic acid, a weak organic acid, can moderate the reactivity of hydrobromic acid, making the solution less aggressive than pure hydrobromic acid. The solution is typically colorless to pale yellow and has a pungent odor. It is used in various applications, including organic synthesis, where it acts as a brominating agent. Safety precautions are essential when handling this substance, as it can cause severe burns and respiratory irritation. Proper storage in a cool, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials is crucial to ensure safety and stability.
