chloric acid

Chloric acid does not have many uses as it is too explosive and reactive.

Chloric acid, by comparison, is very unstable and dangerous.

This page provides supplementary chemical data on chloric acid.

It is similar to chloric acid.

It can be made by reacting ammonia or ammonium carbonate with chloric acid.

Chloric acid is a chemical compound.

Chlorates are salts of chloric acid.

Sulfur can make explosive mixtures with potassium chlorate because chloric acid can be made.

Chlorate produces chloric acid, which is highly unstable and can lead to premature ignition of the composition.

It is the acyl fluoride of chloric acid.

Above these concentrations, and on warming, chloric acid solutions decompose to give a variety of products, for example:

It easily disproportionates to hypochlorous acid and chloric acid.

Chloric acid and bromic acid only exist in solution and break down when crystallized.

"Chlorate" can also refer to chemical compounds containing this anion; chlorates are the salts of chloric acid.

The decomposition is controlled by kinetic factors: indeed, chloric acid is never thermodynamically stable with respect to disproportionation.

For example a mixture of potassium chlorate and sugar will burn when concentrated sulfuric acid is added due to chloric acid production.

Sucrose burns with chloric acid, formed by the reaction of hydrochloric acid and potassium chlorate:

Chloric acid can decompose when warmed to make perchloric acid, chlorine, chlorine dioxide, and oxygen.

Another method is the heating of hypochlorous acid, of which productions include chloric acid and hydrogen chloride:

Chloric acid is a dangerously powerful oxidizing agent and will cause most organics and flammables to deflagrate on contact.

Because sulfur tends to contain acidic impurities, it will form highly unstable mixtures with potassium chlorate due to chloric acid being produced.

Calcium chlorate is the calcium salt of chloric acid with the chemical formula of Ca(ClO).

It dissolves in water very well, but it also exists in the pure state, as opposed to chloric acid or bromic acid.

Potassium chlorate can react with sulfuric acid to form a highly reactive solution of chloric acid and potassium sulfate:

Chloric acid, HClO, is an oxoacid of chlorine, and the formal precursor of chlorate salts.
