On the other hand, chloric(I) acid, for example, oxidises hydrazoic acid to nitrogen ... 

In contrast the endothermic trichloride, AHf = + 230.1 kJ moU ), is extremely reactive with a tendency to explode, being particularly unstable above its boiling point, 344 K, in light, or in the presence of organic compounds. Unlike the trifluoride it is readily hydrolysed by water to ammonia and chloric(I) acid ... 

Recent work indicates the existence offluoric I) acid. HFO, formed by the reaction of fluorine and water at 273 K. The acid forms colourless crystals, m.p. 156 K. is very unstable, and has, as expected, very strong oxidising properties. 

The presence of chloric(I) acid makes the properties of chlorine water different from those of gaseous chlorine, just as aqueous sulphur dioxide is very different from the gas. Chloric(I) acid is a strong oxidising agent, and in acid solution will even oxidise sulphur to sulphuric acid however, the concentration of free chloric(I) acid in chlorine water is often low and oxidation reactions are not always complete. Nevertheless when chlorine bleaches moist litmus, it is the chloric(I) acid which is formed that produces the bleaching. The reaction of chlorine gas with aqueous bromide or iodide ions which causes displacement of bromine or iodine (see below) may also involve the reaction... 

The amount of halic(I) acid formed when the halogen reacts reversibly with water decreases from chlorine to iodine and the concentration of iodic(I) acid in a saturated solution of iodine is negligible. However the equilibrium... 

All the halic(I) acids are unstable in aqueous solution with respect to disproportionation, the stability decreasing from chloric(I) to iodic(I) ... 

The aqueous solution of sodium chlorate(I) is an important liquid bleach and disinfectant. It is produced commercially by the electrolysis of cold aqueous sodium chloride, the anode and cathode products being mixed. The sodium chloride remaining in the solution does not usually matter. There is evidence to suggest that iodic(I) acid has some basic character... 

Chlorine, bromine and iodine form halic(V) acids but only iodic(V) acid, HIO3, can be isolated. Solutions of the chloric) V) and bromic) V) acids can be prepared by the addition of dilute sulphuric acid to barium chlorate(V) and bromate(V) respectively, and then filtering (cf. the preparation of hydrogen peroxide). These two acids can also be prepared by decomposing the corresponding halic(I) acids, but in this case the halide ion is also present in the solution. 

The names adopted for salts consisted of a generic part derived from the acid and a specific part from the metallic base r oxide de plomb + I acide sulfurique le sulfate de plomb. The names for salts of acids containing an element in different degrees of oxidation were given different terminations sufte de soude and sulfate de soude for sodium sulfite and sulfate, and nitrite de baryte and nitrate de baryte for barium nitrite and nitrate.

Solutions which resist changes in their pH values on the addition of small amounts of acids or bases are called buffer solutions or simply buffers. The resistance to a change in the H+ ion concentration on the addition of an acid or an alkali is known as buffer action. Just as the buffer of railway carriages resists shocks, similarly buffer solutions resist the action of various substances which can affect the pH value. There are two types of buffers (i) acidic buffer and (ii) basic buffer.
