HBr is hydrogen bromide.


What is hydrobromic acid'?

Hydrobrmic acid is a solution of hydrogen bromide in water.


Why are acid stored in a glass containers rather than plastics?

Acids are now stored in plastic containers. There are some advantages to plastic. First, plastic won't break if you drop it on the lab floor. Second, there is an acid (hydrofluoric acid, which is always called HF because "hydrofluoric" and "hydrochloric" sound a lot alike but "hydrofluoric" is far more dangerous) that can't be stored in glass at all. HF will eat right through a glass container. It can be, and is, stored in plastic. Having said that, no one in an educational setting should ever have access to this product. Do an exercise here: draw a square 125mm on each side. If HF comes into contact with that much of the skin on your body, you will die without EXTREMELY aggressive medical care from people who know how to manage HF casualties. And even if your medical attendants have been to Honeywell's school - Honeywell is the company that makes most of the HF in the United States - and they have all the chemicals needed to save your life, there are no guarantees. Next, plastic containers weigh less. And they can be made with a roughened surface for better gripping.

What is used to contain sulfuric acid?

Sulfuric acid is commonly stored in containers made of materials like glass, plastic, or certain metals such as stainless steel or aluminum that are resistant to its corrosive properties. These containers are designed to prevent leaks or reactions with the acid.


What is HBr acid name?

HBr is hydrobromic acid. Simlarly for the other halogens. HF = hydrofluoric acid HCl = hydrochloric acid HI = hydroiodic acid (Careful with the spelling of this one). HAs = hydroastinic acid ( Not characterised).


What is hydrobromic acid symbol?

The chemical formula of hydrobromic acis is HBr.


What is the chemical compound for hydrobromic acid?

Hydrobromic Acid is HBr. Diatomic acids are typically hydrogen combined with a halogen. For nominal purposes, it's usually the prefix "hydro-" with the root of the halogen, but instead of having "-ine" at the end you have "-ic." HBr -> Hydrobromic acid HCl -> Hydrochloric acid HI -> Hydroiodic acid


Can you safely store prints in plastic storage containers?

Yes, prints can be safely stored in plastic storage containers as long as the containers are made of archival quality materials that are free of acid, lignin, and PVC. Additionally, it's important to ensure that the prints are properly supported within the containers to prevent bending or damage. If the prints are valuable or have sentimental value, consider using acid-free paper interleaving between each print for added protection.


Is hydrobromic acid a compound element or a homogeneous mixture?

What containers can store phosphoric acid?

Phosphoric acid can be stored in containers made of materials like glass, stainless steel, or certain plastics such as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene. It is important to check the chemical compatibility of the container material with phosphoric acid to ensure safe storage.


What is the formula for hydrobromic acid?

HBr is a gas which when dissolved in water produces Hydrobromic acid. So hydrobromic acid is generally written as HBr but it is actually HBr(aq). It is sometimes also written as H3O+ Br-


Which name identifies the acid HBr?

This is definitely an acid. It is the chemical formula for hydrobromic acid, which is actually one of the six strongest acids. It will dissociate immediately in water to form a high concentration of the H+ ion, and the concentration of that ion is what determines the pH of the substance. High ion concentration, low pH, strong acid.
