Bromic acid, HBrO3, is an oxoacid of bromine. It is a strong acid that is only known in aqueous solution.[2][3]
Preparation
Bromic acid may be prepared by
- reaction of sulfuric acid with a bromate (e.g., barium bromate);[3]
- electrolysis of a solution of bromine with platinum or lead dioxide anodes;[4]
- passage of a solution of an alkali bromate through a column of acid ion-exchange polymer.[5]
The solutions can be concentrated under reduced pressure up to a mass fraction of HBrO3 of about 50%, which corresponds approximately to the composition HBrO3·7H2O. Higher concentrations decompose with the release of oxygen: the 50% solution is stable to about 40 °C:[2][3]
- 4 HBrO3 → 2 Br2 + 5 O2 + 2 H2O
