Results for 'hydrofluoric acid':

EXPERIMENT 1
---------------
Hydrofluoric acid (48% by weight) dissolves potassium chlorate and potassium 
bromate much more easily than water. The bromate also slowly decomposes in a 
peculiar way, which is not observed in other acidic solutions (like sulphuric 
or nitric acids).


EXPERIMENT 2
---------------
Nitrite ion is very unstable in concentrated hydrofluoric acid. Although the
acid only is a weak acid, it forces complete decomposition of the nitrite ion
and potassium fluoride remains behind in solution.
