∙ 13y agoHydrogen cyanide (HCN) is an important industrial chemical. It is often converted t sodium or potassium cyanide for storage and transportation. It is used for:
- In the mining industry to dissolve metals out of ore
- In the plating industry asa solven tfor the metals to be plated
- As a building bock in the production of organic chemicals like methyl methacrylate, EDTA and Nylon 66 precursors
Aside: It is a valuable plot device in murder mysteries as it is very toxic at low levels
