Acid throwing and readily available in many instances. For example, often acid throwers can purchase a liter of concentrated sulfuric acid at motorbike mechanic shops for about 40 U.S. cents. Nitric acid costs around $1.50 per liter and is available for purchase at gold or jewelry shops, as polishers generally use it to purify gold and metals. Hydrochloric acid is also used for polishing jewelry, as well as for making soy sauce, cosmetics, and traditional medicine/amphetamine drugs. Due to such ease of access, many organizations call for a stricter regulation on the acid economy. Specific actions include required licenses for all acid
Thiosulfurous acid They are immiscible in water, but dissolve in benzene or carbon tetrachloride. These species are less rigid than the thiosulfite esters. Thiosulfurous acid Thiosulfurous acid (HS−S(=O)−OH) is a low oxidation state (+1) sulfur acid. It is the equivalent acid for disulfur monoxide. Thiosulfurous acid is formed by reacting hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide at room temperature. The thiosulfurous acid molecule is unstable when condensed, reacting with itself. It decomposes to polysulfane oxide or polythionic acids in water which is termed Wakenroder's liquid. Other possible isomers are dihydroxydisulfane or hypodithionous acid HOSSOH, a linear chain, and thiothionyl hydroxide (S=S(OH)) a tautomer
