Hydraulic fracturing of chemicals are used per fracturing. A typical fracture treatment uses between 3 and 12 additive chemicals. Although there may be unconventional fracturing fluids, typical chemical additives can include one or more of the following: The most common chemical used for hydraulic fracturing in the United States in 2005–2009 was methanol, while some other most widely used chemicals were isopropyl alcohol, 2-butoxyethanol, and ethylene glycol. Typical fluid types are: For slickwater fluids the use of sweeps is common. Sweeps are temporary reductions in the proppant concentration, which help ensure that the well is not overwhelmed with proppant. As the fracturing
Hydrochloric acid at 180°). The author suggests that HO may become more important in dilute HCl solutions. ("See" hydronium ion "for further discussion of this issue.") Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, since it is completely dissociated in water. It can therefore be used to prepare salts containing the Cl anion called "chlorides". As a strong acid, hydrogen chloride has a large "K". Theoretical attempts to assign the p"K" of hydrogen chloride have been made, with the most recent estimate being −5.9. However, it is important to distinguish between hydrogen chloride gas and hydrochloric acid. Due to the leveling effect, except when
