HYDROBROMIC ACID

CAS NO: 10035-10-6
EC/LIST NO: 233-113-0

Hydrobromic acid is a strong acid formed by dissolving the diatomic molecule hydrogen bromide (HBr) in water.
"Constant boiling" hydrobromic acid is an aqueous solution that distills at 124.3 °C and contains 47.6% HBr by mass, which is 8.77 mol/L.
Hydrobromic acid has a pKa of −9, making it a stronger acid than hydrochloric acid, but not as strong as hydroiodic acid.
Hydrobromic acid is one of the strongest mineral acids known.

Hydrobromic acid, anhydrous appears as a colorless gas with a pungent irritating odor.
Corrosive.
Heavier than air.
Prolonged exposure to fire or intense heat may result in the violent rupture and rocketing of the container.
Long-term exposure to low concentrations or short-term exposure to high concentrations can result in adverse health effects from inhalation.
Used to make other chemicals and as a catalyst in the manufacture of chemicals.
Rate of onset: Immediate Persistence: Minutes to hours Odor threshold: 2 ppm Source/use/other hazard: Chemical manufacturing industry; very corrosive.

Hydrobromic acid (HBr) aqueous solution is a powerful mineral acid that is an essential chemical tool in modern manufacturing.
Hundreds of other compounds made with HBr are combined in a variety of ways to make such things as semiconductors, fuels, plastics and medicines.
Hydrobromic acid is used to make biocides that control microorganisms and save energy in cooling towers and decorative fountains.
Many completion fluids that help protect the environment and improve production in oil and gas wells are produced using HBr.
Hydrobromic acid does all these things and more by combining with other products and by controlling chemical reactions, so we can’t see it at work.
But without it, many of us wouldn’t be as healthy or as comfortable, and our homes and businesses would likely be less energy efficient.

Hydrobromic acid is an indispensable raw material for organic intermediates, inorganic pharmaceuticals, photosensitive materials, dyes and medicines.
Hydrobromic acid is also used in the production of bromine compounds.
Hydrobromic acid is used as an important agent in the industrial processes of isomerization, polymerization, hydration and dehydration and esterification reactions.
Hydrobromic acid plays an essential role for the extraction of mercury from the cinnebar ore.

Hydrobromic acid (CAS 10035-10-6) is a colorless to light yellow liquid that is formed from one atom of hydrogen and one atom of bromine.
Hydrobromic acid is one of the strongest mineral acids.
When gaseous Hydrobromic acid (highly toxic and extremely soluble in water) is dissolved in water, a highly acidic and corrosive liquid (HBr) is formed.
Hydrobromic acid is commercially available as 48 or 62% acid in bottles.
Hydrobromic acid is widely used in the industry of synthesis of chemicals and also in organic chemistry laboratories for various purposes.

Hydrobromic acid is the solution of Hydrobromic acid (HBr) in water, and strong mineral acid.

Hydrobromic acid is a strong acid formed by dissolving the diatomic molecule Hydrobromic acid in water.

Hydrobromic acid is basically a solution of Hydrobromic acid (HBr) in water as well as strong mineral acid.
You will study the Hydrobromic Acid Formula further as well as the various properties and uses of it.

Hydrobromic acid can be prepared in the laboratory via the reaction of Br2, SO2, and water.

Br2 + SO2 + 2 H2O → H2SO4 + 2 HBr

More typically laboratory preparations involve the production of anhydrous HBr, which is then dissolved in water.

Hydrobromic acid has commonly been prepared industrially by reacting bromine with either sulfur or phosphorus and water.
However, it can also be produced electrolytically.
Hydrobromic acid can also be prepared by treating bromides with non-oxidising acids like phosphoric or acetic acids.

Alternatively the acid can be prepared with dilute (5.8M) sulfuric acid and potassium bromide:

H2SO4 + KBr → KHSO4 + HBr

Using more concentrated sulfuric acid or allowing the reaction solution to exceed 75 °C further oxidizes HBr to bromine gas.
The acid is further purified by filtering out the KHSO4 and by distilling off the water until the solution reaches an azeotrope (≈ 126 °C at 760 torr).
The yield is approximately 85%.

Hydrobromic acid is available commercially in various concentrations and purities.

The chemical formula of hydrobromic acid (aqueous hydrogen bromide) is HBr, and its molar mass is 80.9 g/mol.

Hydrobromic acid is a simple, diatomic molecule with a single covalent bond between the bromine and hydrogen atoms.
The high electronegativity of Br causes this bond to become easily ionized (releasing H+), thus making HBr a very strong acid
