Determination of Boiling Point of Hydrochloric Acid Solution by Distillation Method (CAT#: STEM-PPA-0149-YJL)

Introduction

Hydrogen chloride, anhydrous appears as a colorless gas with a sharp, pungent odor. Fumes strongly in moist air. Nonflammable. Corrosive to metals and tissues and irritating to the eyes and respiratory system. Heavier than air. Long-term inhalation of low concentrations or short-term inhalation of high concentrations has adverse health effects.
