Any solution that is responsible for corrosion of substances is a corrosive solution. Most commonly we use iron's rusting as an example of corrosion which is formed by moisture in air. Some commonly known corrosive solutions are Hydrochloric acid, Iron(III) chloride, HF, Aqua fortis, Acetic acid, Hydroxylammonium nitrate, Aqua regia .
