Hydrochloric acid (HCl), one of the basic chemicals, is widely used in many industries such as iron and steel production, food processing, pharmaceuticals and chloride salt preparation. With outstanding chemical properties, HCl exhibits strong corrosive properties and participates in many important chemical reactions. Not only playing an essential role in production, hydrochloric acid is also known as an important component in water treatment and metal rust removal. In this article, we will explore in detail the physical and chemical properties of hydrochloric acid as well as practical applications to help improve industrial production efficiency.

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF HCHOIDRIC ACID
1, HCl is a strong acid
- + Turns litmus paper red.
- a) Hydrochloric acid reacts with the metal in front of H → salt in which the metal has low valence + H.
- HCl + Fe
- Fe + 2HCl → FeCl + H ↑
- b) Hydrochloric acid reacts with metal oxide → salt (in which the metal retains its valence) + H O.
- HCl + FeO
- Fe O + 8HCl → 4H O + FeCl + 2FeCl
- c) Hydrochloric acid reacts with base → salt (in which the metal retains its valence) + H O.
- HCl + NaOH
- NaOH + HCl → NaCl + HO
- HCl + Fe(OH)
- Fe(OH) + 2HCl → FeCl + 2H O
- d) Hydrochloric acid reacts with salt → new salt + new acid
- HCl + NaCO
- Na CO + 2HCl → 2NaCl + HO + CO ↑
- HCl + CaCO
- CaCO + 2HCl → CaCl + HO + CO ↑
- HCl + AgNO
- AgNO + 2HCl → AgCl↓ + HNO
- HCl + NaCO
2, HCl has oxidizing and reducing properties
- + Hydrochloric acid exhibits oxidizing properties when reacting with metals before H (see acidity section).
- + Hydrochloric acid acts as a reducing agent when reacting with strong oxidizing agents such as KMnO, K Cr O,
- MnO, KClO, …
- 2HCl + MnO → MnCl + Cl ↑ + HO
- 16HCl + 2KMnO → 2KCl + 2MnCl + 5Cl ↑ + 8HO
- 14HCl + K Cr O → 2KCl + 2CrCl + 3Cl ↑ + 7H O
- 6HCl + KClO → KCl + 3Cl ↑ + 3H O
32% HCL solution
