A chemical that can soften cement is muriatic acid. It is a very aggressive acid and can eat concrete on contact.
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
Acid =)
its an acid
is an acid
Muriatic Acid is good at dissolving cement, as well as RoMix Back Set Molecular Cement Dissolver
Hydrochloric acid
Vinegar is usually 4-8% acetic acid by volume. Portland cement will slowly disintegrate after repeated exposure to vinegar. Phosphoric acid. Sullfamic acid dissolves hardened Portland cement by converting the constituents of the cement into soluble salts, which are dissolved by water. Muriatic (Hydrochloric) Acid is more aggressive than Phosphoric or Sulfamic. It is considered an unsafe acid due to its corrosive nature and toxic gas that is formed when in contact with cement. Reactions of nitric acid with cyanides, carbides, and metallic powders can be explosive.
An acid can turn into a base if you mix a much stronger base with it! That way the base acid overpowers the acid and makes the acid a base!
no
Wash with a paste of oxalic acid,the strong acids may react with marble and constituents of cement.
Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid
It is a base It is a base It is a base
no it has a metal and cement base
Although muriatic acid is effective at removing cat odors from cement it is a very dangerous acid. Diluted with water, it makes an effective cleaner for cement.
Flour is a base, not an acid.
