This chemical is used in high energy ionic exchange resin reactions, in which the final product is demineralized water.
This chemical is used in high energy ionic exchange resin reactions, in which the final product is demineralized water. It serves as a proton donor in elimination reactions which form alkenes, and it is formed as a byproduct in SN2 reactions involving alkyl halides. It is more commonly used in the steel industry as a rust-removing agent, where iron(III) oxide is formed as a byproduct, and it is a key component of "aqua regia." For 10 points, identify this corrosive acid with formula HCl.
