Hydrogen cyanide synonyms

Petroleum chemicals or petrochemicals are chemicals derived from petroleum, liquefied petroleum gases, or natural gas. These raw materials are the major sources of organic chemicals today, and the term petrochemicals is virtually synonymous with organic chemicals. Therefore, the markets for petrochemicals are the same as the markets for organic chemicals in general. Even a few inorganic chemicals—for example, sulfur, sulfuric acid, ammonia, and hydrogen cyanide—are made from petroleum and natural gas. 

Cyanide is a common industrial chemical that has many uses, and it is produced in large quantities across the world as described in Chapter 14. Synonyms for HCN include hydrogen cyanide, prussic acid, formic anamminide, and fromonitrile (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, 1997). Analytical methods are based upon the physiochemical state of cyanide and its interaction in the body. 

Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is also chemically identified by the synonyms formonitrile, prussic acid and hydrocyanic acid. The physicochemical properties most related to the biological activity and uses of HCN are summarized in Table 1. Notable with HCN is that it is a low boiling point liquid (26.5°C). Related to its low MW (27.04) it has a high vapor pressure (600 mm Hg at 20°C) and low vapor density (0.947 at 31°C), Thus,...
