3 General
3.1 Physical properties
Hydrochloric acid, HCl, is a solution of hydrogen chloride gas in water. It is a colorless or slightly yellow liquid with an extremely pungent odor.
Anhydrous hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chloride) has a relative molecular mass of 36.46.
3.2 Hazardous properties
Hydrochloric acid causes severe skin burns on contact.
3.3 Storage
Hydrochloric acid shall be stored in well-closed containers away from combustible materials.
4 Requirements
A summary of the requirements is shown in Table 1 .
5 Reagents and glassware All reagents, materials, and glassware shall conform with the requirements specified in ISO 1 0349-1 unless otherwise noted. The hazard warning symbols, used as a reminder in those steps detailing handling operations, are defined in ISO 1 0349-1 . These symbols are used to provide information to the user and are not meant to provide conformance with hazardous labeling requirements, as these vary from country to country.
6 Sampling
See ISO 1 0349-1 .
