  • DESCRIPTION

Nitric acid (HNO3), also known as aqua fortis (Latin for “strong water”) and spirit of niter, is a highly corrosive mineral acid.The pure compound is colorless, but older samples tend to acquire a yellow cast due to decomposition into oxides of nitrogen and water. Most commercially available nitric acid has a concentration of 68% in water. When the solution contains more than 86% HNO3, it is referred to as fuming nitric acid. Depending on the amount of nitrogen dioxide present, fuming nitric acid is further characterized as white fuming nitric acid at concentrations above 95%, or red fuming nitric acid at concentrations above 86%.

 
APPLICATION:

The industrial grade is about 68% in water, commercial grade is between 52% and 68%, fuming nitric acid is 86% or higher, while concentrations above 95% are called white fuming or red fuming nitric acid. … Uses: Nitric acid is widely used for the production of fertilizers, such as ammonium nitrate, and polymers

PROPERTIES:

Nitric acid is a liquid with an acrid, pungent and suffocating odor. There are different concentrations of nitric acid available, and they are colorless, yellow or red accordingly. The industrial grade is about 68% in water, commercial grade is between 52% and 68%, fuming nitric acid is 86% or higher, while concentrations above 95% are called white fuming or red fuming nitric acid.

Nitric acid is a strong, monoprotic acid. It readily forms solid hydrates such as the monohydrate (HNO3·H2O) and the trihydrate (HNO3·3H2O). Nitric acid can be decomposed by heat or light as shown below:4 HNO3 → 2 H2O + 4 NO2 + O2.It is a powerful oxidizing agent, and reacts violently with many non-metallic compounds. It also reacts with metals to dissolve them, form metal oxides, etc.

Uses:

Nitric acid is widely used for the production of fertilizers, such as ammonium nitrate, and polymers (eg. Nylon). It is an excellent nitrating agent (introduces a nitro group), in combination with sulfuric acid. It is also used as oxidizer in liquid-fueled rockets.
