PackingGroup: I
A highly corrosive irritant to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Mildly toxic by inhalation. Explosive reaction with alcohols + hydrogen cyanide, potassium permanganate, sodium (with aqueous HCl), tetraselenium tetranitride. Ignition on contact with aluminum-titanium alloys (with HCl vapor), fluorine, hexalithium disilicide, metal acetylides or carbides (e.g., cesium acetylide, rubidium acetylide). Violent reaction with 1,1-difluoroethylene. Vigorous reaction with aluminum, chlorine + dinitroanilines (evolves gas). Potentially dangerous reaction with sulfuric acid releases HCl gas. Adsorption of the acid onto silicon dioxide is exothermic. See also HYDROGEN CHLORIDE (aerosol) and HYDROCHLORIC ACID.
