Fluorosulfuric acid Fluorosulfuric acid Fluorosulfuric acid (IUPAC name: sulfurofluoridic acid) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula HSOF. It is one of the strongest acids commercially available. The formula HSOF emphasizes its relationship to sulfuric acid, HSO; HSOF is a tetrahedral molecule. It is a colourless liquid, although commercial samples are often yellow. Fluorosulfuric acid is a free-flowing colorless liquid. It is soluble in polar organic solvents (e.g. nitrobenzene, acetic acid, and ethyl acetate), but poorly soluble in nonpolar solvents such as alkanes. Reflecting its strong acidity, it dissolves almost all organic compounds that are even weak proton acceptors. HSOF hydrolyzes
Pyrosilicic acid the original solution is converted to pyrosilicic acid, which persists for 10 minutes or more. Pyrosilicic acid can also be obtained by controlled hydrolysis of the corresponding organic ester, such as hexaethyl pyrosilicate, with dilute sulfuric acid. Pyrosilicic acid Pyrosilicic acid is the chemical compound with formula , or -O-. It is one of the silicic acids. It has never been isolated in pure form, but it is assumed to be present in solutions of silicon dioxide (silica) in water, in equilibrium with other silicic acids and silicate ions. The salts of pyrosilicic acid are called pyrosilicates, such as sodium
