Hydrochloric acid is a strong inorganic acid that is used in many industrial processes such as refining metal. The application often determines the required product quality. [25] Hydrogen chloride, not hydrochloric acid, is used more widely in industrial organic chemistry, e.g. for vinyl chloride and dichloroethane. [8]
Preparation [ edit ] Dragendorff's reagent is prepared by mixing a concentrated solution of potassium iodide with a solution of bismuth subnitrate in a diluted acid ( acetic acid or tartaric acid , hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid is rarely being used) as a low pH is mandatory for this reagent.
The color intensity of the resulting solution is then measured by a colorimeter and checked against a calibration curve to determine the nitrite ion concentration. [ 4 ] To analyze nitrate concentrations quantitatively, the sample is first passed through a copper-cadmium column to reduce the nitrate ions quantitatively to nitrite ions, and the ...
McIlvaine buffer is a buffer solution composed of citric acid and disodium hydrogen phosphate, also known as citrate-phosphate buffer.It was introduced in 1921 by the United States agronomist Theodore Clinton McIlvaine (1875–1959) from West Virginia University, and it can be prepared in pH 2.2 to 8 by mixing two stock solutions.
To make a 100 ml solution of T 10 E 1 buffer, 1 ml of 1 M Tris base (pH 10–11) and 0.2 ml EDTA (0.5 M) are mixed and made up with double distilled water up to 100ml. Add microliter amounts of high molarity HCl to lower the pH to 8. Based on nuclease studies from the 1980s, the pH is usually adjusted to 7.5 for RNA and 8.0 for DNA.
A more convenient laboratory method involves the (reversible) dehydration of nitrous acid by HCl [4] HNO 2 + HCl → H 2 O + NOCl. By the direct combination of chlorine and nitric oxide; This reaction reverses above 100 °C. Cl 2 + 2 NO → 2 NOCl. By reduction of nitrogen dioxide with hydrogen chloride: [5] 2NO 2 + 4 HCl → 2NOCl + 2H 2 O + Cl 2
A solution of hydrated rhodium trichloride in methanol reacts with carbon monoxide to produce H[RhCl 2 (CO) 2], which contains the dicarbonyldichloridorhodate(I) anion. Further carbonylation in the presence of sodium citrate as a reductant leads to tetrarhodium dodecacarbonyl , Rh 4 (CO) 12 , a rhodium(0) cluster compound . [ 16 ]
Tris (with HCl) has a slightly alkaline buffering capacity in the 7–9.2 range. The conjugate acid of Tris has a pK a of 8.07 at 25 °C. The pK a declines approximately 0.03 units per degree Celsius rise in temperature. This can lead to relatively dramatic pH shifts when there are shifts in solution temperature.
