Hydrochloric acid, which belongs to the group of strong acides, can be obtained from common salt. During this process hydrogen chloride gases are released. The presence of hydrogen chloride (in a solution) can be indicated with the aid of silver nitrate. In this experiment students prepare hydrochloric acid on the basis of common salt (sodium chloride) and study its properties.
Learning objectives
- Preparation and properties of hydrochloric acid
Benefits
- Easy teaching and efficient learning by using interactive experimentation PHYWE-Software
- Experiment is part of a complete solution set with experiments for the topic acids, alkalis and salts matched with international curriculum: all topics are covered
