an acid compound, HCI, commonly used to acidize carbonate rocks. It is prepared by mixing hydrogen chloride gas in water. Also known as muriatic acid.
A normal constituent of gastric juice produced by the partietal cells of the stomach. The HCL concentration in the stomach is variable, depending upon the type of food eaten. It serves to convert pepsinogen into pepsin and produces an acid medium favorable for the activity of pepsin; dissolves and disintegrates proteins and collagen; inhibits multiplication of bacteria, prevents putrefactive organisms that ferment lactic acid and pathogenic forms. In pernicious anemia, HCL is absent from the stomach (achlorhydria).
a poisonous solution of hydrogen chloride gas in water. This acid is pungent and highly corrosive.
A clear, colorless liquid containing hydrogen and chlorine.
Also known as muriatic acid. Used in toilet bowl cleaners in varying dilutions. Hydrogen Chloride.
An acid formed when appreciable quantity of moisture are present in A CFC or methyl chloride.
A highly corrosive substance that forms when water and refrigerants mix in the A/C system Low
an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride; a strongly corrosive acid
a normally acidic part of the body's gastric juice.
An acid produced in the stomach which helps the body digest food.
The type of acid secreted by the stomach.
acid made in the stomach that works with pepsin and other enzymes to break down proteins.
acid made by the stomach that breaks down proteins in the foods we eat.
A solution of hydrogen chloride gas (HCl) in water. Also known as muriatic acid. Fumes in the air. A colorless liquid (sometimes yellow) with an acrid odor. Acid is poisonous and corrosive. Shipped in glass bottles or glass carboys, or rubber-lined steel drums. Used in petroleum production, as a chemical intermediate, and in ore reduction, food processing, pickling, and metal cleaning. In illicit heroin production, hydrochloric acid is used to convert morphine base to morphine hydrochloride (e.g., “999” morphine blocks or bricks) or to convert heroin base to heroin hydrochloride.
Also called muriatic acid - a very strong acid used in spas to lower the ph and total alkalinity. It can also be used for various cleaning needs. Used in "acid washing" a spa. Use extreme care in handling.
a strong corrosive irritating acid, normally present in dilute form in gastric juice.
As A Treatment"...When and if irritation (heartburn, stomach ache, heaviness, nausea) occurs, you may take an antacid (i..."
A strong acid consisting of a solution of hydrogen chloride in water
The only known compound of hydrogen and chlorine made by dissolving the corrosive gaseous compound, hydrogen chlorine, in water. (See also Aqua Regia).
A solution of the colorless gas hydrogen chloride that is a strong corrosive irritating acid, used in dilute form for cleaning portland cement paste from brick or stone work.
Corrosive. Severe eye, skin, and mucous membrane irritant; highly toxic if inhaled with unknown systemic effects. Inhalation of vapors may cause severe irritation of the respiratory system, coughing, and difficulty breathing. Used in some toilet bowl cleaners and deodorizers. (also see chlorine and muriatic acid) A strong mineral or "inorganic" acid. In high concentrations, it is extremely corrosive. Found in: Toilet bowl cleaners
a powerful acid contained in stomach juices that helps the body break down food. When present in the esophagus, this acid can irritate the lining of the esophagus and cause the sensation known as heartburn.
(HCl) – also called muriatic acid – A very strong acid used in pools to control pH and total alkalinity. It can also be used for various cleaning needs. Used in "acid washing" a pool. Use extreme care in handling.
An aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride that is a strong corrosive, irritating acid, widely used in industry and in the laboratory.
Inorganic acid used as one component of etchant in the cupric chloride etching process. Also known as Muriatic Acid.
chemical formula HCl, hydrochloric acid a relatively strong acid primarily used as part of the SC2 Clean. Hydrochloric acid is commonly sold as a 47% solution and has a density of 1.19Kg/L. Hydrochloric acid burns on contact with skin or eyes and the vapors will irritate or burn eyes or lungs.
A strong, corrosive inorganic acid that is produced in the stomach to aid in digestion. See: Betaine HCL
Also called muriatic acid. A very strong acid used in pools to lower the pH or total alkalinity. It can also be used for cleaning an empty pool (acid washing).
a component of gastric juice secreted in the stomach. It helps chemical digestion by breaking down food and providing the optimum pH for the digestive enzyme pepsin Humans as organisms
(HCl): An inorganic acidic compound, excreted by the stomach, that aids in digestion.
As A Treatment"In order to confirm whether hydrochloric acid (HCl) is needed, the HCL trial is used to assess stomach digestive function by evaluating the integrity of the stomach lining and its mucous barrier..."
The chemical compound hydrochloric acid is the aqueous (water-based) solution of hydrogen chloride gas (HCl). It is a strong acid, the major component of gastric acid and of wide industrial use. Hydrochloric acid must be handled with appropriate safety precautions because it is a highly corrosive liquid.
