Hydrobromic Acid is formed by dissolving the diatomic molecule
hydrogen bromide in water. It has a
pKa of −9, making it a stronger acid than
hydrochloric acid, but not as strong as
hydroiodic acid. Hydrobromic acid is one of the strongest
mineral acids known. (See
strong acid.)
Uses
Hydrobromic acid is mainly used for the production of inorganic bromides, cleaning alkoxy and phenoxy compounds, substitution of hydroxyl groups, and the hydrobromination of alkenes. It also catalyzes alkylation reactions and the extraction of certain ores.
Syntheses
Hydrobromic acid can be prepared in the laboratory via the reaction of
Br2,
SO2, and water.. It can also be prepared by treating bromides with non-oxidising acids like phosphoric or acetic acids.
Hydrobromic acid is available in various concentrations and purities.
