General description

Chloric acid solution (Chloric acid) is a strong oxidizing agent. It can be synthesized by reacting barium chlorate with dilute sulfuric acid. Chloric acid is reported to be formed during the decompostion of aqueous solution of chlorine dioxide.

Application

Chloric acid solution (Chloric acid) may be used in the synthesis of crystals of anhydrous mercurous chlorate.
Stable precursor to chlorine dioxide. Used in electrochemical production of high-purity ammonium perchlorate.
