General description

Chloric acid solution (Chloric acid) is a strong oxidizing agent. It can be synthesized by reacting barium chlorate with dilute sulfuric acid.[1] Chloric acid is reported to be formed during the decompostion of aqueous solution of chlorine dioxide.[2]

Application

Chloric acid solution (Chloric acid) may be used in the synthesis of crystals of anhydrous mercurous chlorate.[3]
Stable precursor to chlorine dioxide. Used in electrochemical production of high-purity ammonium perchlorate.[4]
