Hydrochloric acid
Hydrochloric acid or dissolved hydrogen chloride (with the chemical formula HCl) is one of the most widely used mineral acids, which plays an important role in industrial processes due to its unique chemical properties. This acid has become a basic ingredient in the production and processing of many products due to its high corrosive power and ability to react with minerals, metals, and organic materials.
