HCl shock.. Any1 has acid phobia? hah..

Few days ago we did an experiment to prepare chloropentaamminecobalt(III) chloride.. Cool name huh? Its just a complex metal la :D naming mcm pro aje.. aha.. Well basically there was this step that required us to be equipped with gloves.. We were actually playing with highly concentrated acid.. There were white fumes escaping from the solution even when its left aside..


6M HCl added!!

White fumes all the way.. Looks dangerous but Dr tang said ITS OK!


Check out the reaction !
