Mist the bricks with clean water. Dip a sponge or a cloth in the acid solution and apply the mixture to the bricks. Let it sit for a couple of minutes. Apply baking soda to the bricks to neutralize the acid. Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove acid residue from the bricks. Rinse the bricks with plenty of clean water.
How do you extract gold from circuit boards with muriatic acid. In a container, mix two more parts of hydrochloric acid and just one part of weak hydrogen peroxide (three percent concentration). Pour this mixture over the printed circuit boards so that they are completely submerged in water. Wait a week and stir the container daily …
The more chlorine, the more CuCl 4, and the greener the liquid gets. What I think is happening is that the bleach reaction and the muriatic acid + baking soda reaction both produced H 2 O. Some of the copper(II) chloride dissolved into the water, and then sucked up more chlorine and shifted to green. Soap and water wash
gold processing with muratic acid and chlorine bleach. When combined with hydrochloric acid, the mixture produces chlorine that Pour the acid-and-bleach mixture "How to Use Bleach on Gold Ore to Remove Gold hcl and bleach - Gold Refining Forum Feb 23, 2011· Gold Refining Forum. Chlorine is the active ingredient in …
#1 Why isn't muriatic acid and bleach the standard to dissolve gold being that bleach can be bought at any grocery and muriatic can be gotten from most …
Editorial Note: The chemicals involved in the first three incidents were a standard bleach (5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution [NaOCl]) and a 4% phosphoric acid (H3PO4) cleaning agent. When sodium hypochlorite and an acid are mixed, chlorine gas and water are released (Figure 1a).
Sorry for confusion. I started with muratic acid covering the gold flakes (inside beaker) I then added common bleach (all gold dissolved) Third step i filtered the solution using coffee filter. Next step is where I rinsed previous beaker with bleach, also rinsed filter paper so I would leave no solution containing gold behind.
I have used a number of chemicals these I have found to be the most widely available. 1 gallon of Clorox Bleach. or Sodium hypochlorate at 6% 2. Muriatic Acid 34% HCL ~ …
Pour the acid-and-bleach mixture into the plastic bowl with the ore grains and stir. Allow four hours for the gold to dissolve, stirring …
Chris B wrote:Well before I put the muratic acid in the cholorine was at 1.2, the PH was at 7.8 and the alkalinity was at 180. The guy at Watson's said put a gallon of muratic acid in and let it run through the filter for 12 hours. I did that and the water was still crystal clear. Watson's then said add the second gallon of muratic acid.
Hi Derek, Hydrochloric Acid (Muriatic in yank) will actually eventually turn into a AP solution anyway because the air in your bucket will react (slowly) with the copper. By deliberately turning it into AP with some Hydrogen Peroxide, you are merely speeding up the process. The purpose of the AP solution is to etch copper, under all normal …
Using only the HCl acid (muratic) will normally breakdown the rock/silca which encases the gold. but HCl is also used to remove/dissolve the base metals …
your gold along with the base metals due to the excessive amount of chlorine produced. If you think about the etching reaction you will realize that the active ingredient is the copper II chloride, not the peroxide or the muratic acid. With this in mind the water is necessary to allow the exchange of the copper metal ions in liquid form.
If you mix more than a few milliliters of equal portions of 32% HCl (muriatic acid) and 5% sodium hypochlorite (bleach), you are going to make one hell of a large …
Mixing muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid) with bleach (sodium hypochlorite), you are freeing chlorine to attack the gold. You are making gold chloride. Try exposing the solution to ultraviolet light, to break the bond between the gold and the chlorine molecules.
If you are looking to eliminate bleach from the process, just use 5%-35% hydrogen peroxide. There are many other ways to produce chlorine, in situ with …
Oct 2, 2012. #2. Potassium metabisulfite has a molar mass of 222.32 g/mole. Sodium metabisulfite is 190.1 g/mole. So you'll need to use about 17% more (by weight) of the potassium. I usually add about 1.2 grams of smb per gram of gold you expect to recover. Then use stannous chloride to gauge how much more is needed.
Muriatic acid has many commercial and home uses, including the following: Industrial synthesis of vinyl chloride and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) Food additive. Gelatin production. Descaling. Leather processing. cleaning (when diluted) Pickling of steel. Production of inorganic chemical compounds.
Now with the HCl / NaClO (sodium hypochlorite bleach) method, it is a bit harder to determine how much to use, because the sodium hypochlorite bleach is a basic solution and will neutralize some of our acid to salts. so we may need a little more HCl per gram to begin with, and the sodium hypochlorite is only about 3 to 6 % dissolved …
Wash the pieces you want to clean up in advance, and give them time to dry out completely. Decide what sort of concentration of the acid you will need. Put your rocks in the vessel (glass or acid resistant). If you are going to dilute your acid, first pour the water into your vessel (glass or acid resistant). Then add the acid you need.
There are four types of bleach that woodworkers commonly use: chlorine, two-part wood bleach, oxalic acid and peroxide. Two-part bleach changes the actual color of wood and the other three remove stains. Read on to find out what each one does and how to use them safely. Chlorine bleach. Common laundry bleach (sodium …
However, there are times when people are working on fabric projects where they use bleach for decorative effects! Under these circumstances, you want to quickly stop the bleaching action from sodium hypochlorite (the active in Clorox® Regular Bleach 2 ). In that case, a hydrogen peroxide solution that's 1 part hydrogen peroxide + 10 parts ...
Hypochlorite (bleach) will dissolve gold and this gold can be precipitates by the degradation of the gold chloride. This might help: …

Apply all safety gear correctly before working with chemicals and do this outside as the fumes are nasty. Put the gold fingers and clean circuit boards in the coffee pot, in another container mix two parts muriatic acid and one part hydrogen peroxide and add to the coffee pot until it just covers the gold fingers and wait a week giving it a stir daily.
Do Not Mix. Muriatic acid is an effective cleaning agent on its own and should not be mixed with chemicals like bleach or potassium permanganate. Mixing these chemicals together produces chlorine gas, …
Feb 22, 2011. #2. If you mix more than a few milliliters of equal portions of 32% HCl (muriatic acid) and 5% sodium hypochlorite (bleach), you are going to make one hell of a large cloud of chlorine gas. Boiling the mixture will only expand the cloud. Chlorine is the active ingredient in dissolving the gold in the HCl-Cl reaction.
Chlorine + Muriatic Acid. ... I had some metal staining and did a whole process of lowering chlorine, adding ascorbic acid and then a metal sequestrant. The stains lightened but didn't completely go away. ... Then add the liquid chlorine, if 6% bleach, add 1-gallon, or the entire bottle to the pool. And after a few days the chlorine …
You can start by adding 1/2 to 1 cup of oxalic acid crystals to 1/2 gallon of water in the bucket. For larger quantities, use about 16 ounces of oxalic acid to 2 gallons or more of water. Too much oxalic acid can turn quartz yellow, so if you have light staining, only use about 2 tablespoons of oxalic acid per 1/2 gallon of water.
If you are looking to eliminate bleach from the process, just use 5%-35% hydrogen peroxide. There are many other ways to produce chlorine, in situ with Hydrochloric acid, I prefer using 35% peroxide. This reagent has no spectator ions that lead to salt formation like the sodium bonded oxidizers.
