Making The Highly Reactive Chloric Acid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- Amongst the leading candidates for terrible and nasty acids is Chloric Acid. So reactive that just making it can be dangerous, and adding certain things to the acid will cause it to explode. However, using a suitable outdoor environment, when mixing sulfuric acid and potassium chlorate to make chloric acid, this process can be done safely. Enjoy but never do.

My safety engineer wouldn't let me have perchloric acid to electropolish aluminum. So I made chloric acid with acetic acid instead. It electropolished just fine but it was not at all stable. I dodged a bullet there. Chloric acid deserves it's bad rap. That includes ammonium chlorate, a great destroyer of pyrotechnic compositions.
id like to see a chloric acid based pirahna solution, since it also dehydrates things and is much stronger, it should be more powerful
It's like an even angrier Mn2O7
Fun fact: in russian chlor-oxygen acid names sounds like
HClO4 - very similar to "chloric"
HClO3 hmmm. "хлорноватая" like "slightly chloric" or something like that
The names of the last two in languages differ mainly only in the suffix, "ous" = "ist", but in your video with HClO3 I had to look at the formulas before I understood what you were talking about
Very nice video its extremely well made! good video Ami
This is one I will definitely not be doing. Nice video though
I Used 98% Sulfuric Acid And Sodium Chlorate...
THEN I TRIED TO DISTILL THE MIXTURE !!!
One Of The Most Stupid Things That I've Done In My Entire Life,
I Saw A Bright Yellow Gas (Chlorine Dioxide) (Which Has A Smell Very Similar To Nitrogen Dioxide/Ozonish Scent) Filling My Condenser And Flask, I Was Doing Ths Experiment In A Closed Room (I Was Crazy At The Moment) I Held My Breath And I Took The Distillation setup outside (Though I Held My Breath, Somehow A Tiny Amount Of Gas Has Entered My Nose Because I Was Nearly Running to Take The Condenser Out) My Nose Was Irritated Only For Seconds And Thats It, I Won't Work With Chloric Acid Again (And Yeah, I Got nearly 20 ml Distilled Chloric Acid/hydrochloric Acid Mixture Which I Got Rid Of Instantly Because It Reeked Chlorine Dioxide)
Ye ha!
I tried distilling 40% chloric acid solution and this failed, chloric acid decomposes at 40°c
The distillation was successful, the yellow color I thought was chloric acid, when I tried adding sodium bicarbonate it didn't react, it seemed like it was just chlorine dissolving in water, the next day the yellow water turned colorless and had no smell anymore
@@stevestarcke YEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAH
@@isafiilvg Although It Will Decompose, Some Of The Chlorine Dioxide Gas Will Dissolve In Water Making Chloric Acid Again (Simillar Behaviour To Nitric Acid),
But I Didn't Test The Distillate,
I Thought It Was Chloric Acid Because Of The Chlorine Dioxide Smell And Color,
I Reacted Sodium chorate And 98% Sulfuric Acid, I Dipped Aluminum Foil In The Mixture And It Popped really Hard,
But Yeah I Didn't Test The Distillate
Fantastic pre-lab planning. Thinking about every possible scenerio. What could go wrong? How do I mitigate against this?
Planning a synthesis/prep/reaction is paramount not only for safety reasons, but also for helping the synthesis/prep/reaction to go the way you want it to (e.g. for maximum efficiency, maximum product yield and reducing side products).
Thanks!
Always a good day when you upload! This acid is nasty but I'm not sure if this is more reactive than just molten KClO3.
Thank you!
yeah better dont mess with this stuff...
I once was working with a solution of chloric acid in lab and some of it got on an cloth, after a short delay the cloth caught on fire.
This stuff is very nasty.
Sorry for bad English it is not my first language.
I'll leave this for the younger, more naive crowd.
Can you make some permanganic acid next? Same method except you swap out the potassium chlorate for potassium permanganate.😈
I have already. It's a previous video: ua-cam.com/video/7pkTva-rY3c/v-deo.html
Wow, dealing with 0.5mL of sulfuric is a really small amount. I mean, you need a small syringe for that
