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

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
