Pungent
Anhydrous HCl is available in steel cylinders because completely dry HCl is not
very reactive. But dry HCl often reacts only in the presence of catalysts.
HCl solution in a polar solvent is strong acid and, therefore, an aggressive
reagent.

90% of the hydrogen chloride produced as a byproduct from various chemical processes.
The crude HCl generated in these processes is generally
contaminated with impurities such as unreacted chlorine,
organics, chlorinated organic and entrained catalyst
particles.
A wide variety of techniques are employed to treat these
HCl streams to obtain either anhydrous HCl or
hydrochloric acid.
Some of the processes in which HCl is produced as byproduct is the manufacture of chloro-fluoro-hydrocarbons,
manufacture of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons,
production of high surface area silica, and the manufacture
of phosphoric acid and esters of phosphoric acid.

Aq. H2SO4 solutions are defined by their H 2SO4 content in weightpercent terms.
Anhydrous (100%) sulfuric acid sometimes referred to as
monohydrate, which means that it is the monohydrate of SO 3.
Dissolve any quantity of SO 3, forming oleum (fuming sulfuric acid).
The physical properties of sulfuric acid and oleum are dependent on
H2SO4 and SO3 concentrations, temperature, and pressure.
