Nitric Acid Substitute 16oz

To dissolve gold for later precipitation, a nitric acid substitute is required to be mixed with hydrochloric acid. Start by dissolving 80 grams (2.8 oz) of JSP Nitric Acid Substitute in 50 milliliters (1.7 fl oz) of water. Begin by portioning out the JSP Nitric Acid Substitute into a small glass mixing container, then add in all of the water at once. Swirl the mixture inside the container to aid in faster dissolution. It is crucial to use distilled water, as tap water may contain chemicals that could alter the acid composition.

Next, add 100 milliliters (3.4 fl oz) of JSP hydrochloric acid to the solution carefully. Use a graduated cylinder to measure the exact amount of acid needed. Gently transfer the acid to the JSP Nitric Acid SUBSTITUTE solution, being careful not to spill or splash. Swirl the contents of the container once more to thoroughly mix the chemical components. It is recommended to work under a fume hood or in a well-ventilated open area, as strong fumes will be emitted when the materials come into contact with the acid.

Warning: Always wear gloves and safety goggles when handling acids. Hydrochloric acid can be highly corrosive, and even a small drop on the skin could result in serious burns.

Finally, fill a second larger container with 50 milliliters (1.7 fl oz) of water.
