About This Product
Nitric acid supports teaching on acid-base equations and nitrate-ion chemistry, and is used in authorised analytical procedures where it is specified. Staff work in a ventilated, restricted area wearing splash goggles, acid-resistant gloves, a lab coat and closed footwear, with compatible glassware and secondary containment. Besides buyers across India, the Concentrated Nitric Acid can be exported to institutions in Samoa, Indonesia, Chad, Malawi and Paraguay.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How are dilute nitric acid solutions prepared?
The acid is added slowly to water with stirring and cooling, starting from a known stock concentration. Water is never added into concentrated acid.
