Magic acid is the second most reactive Superacid behind fluoroantimonic acid. It is a superacid consisting of a mixture of fluorosulfonic acid (HSO3F) and antimony pentafluoride (SbF5). The name refers to its ability to protonate hydrocarbons, vividly demonstrated when a postdoctoral associate in the lab of George A. Olah used it to dissolve a candle.

What is the molarity of carborane superacid?

The molarity of carborane superacid will depend on the concentration of the acid solution. Carborane superacid is a strong acid with high acidity and is typically prepared in low concentrations due to its reactivity and potential hazards. Common concentrations for carborane superacid solutions range from 0.1 to 1 M.
