Hydrocyanic acid (hcn) is an aqueous solution of hydrogen cyanides that is a poisonous weak acid, it is a weak solution and is used in fumigating and in the synthesis of organic compounds. Hydrogen cyanide is a colorless gas with a faint, bitter, smelling of bitter almonds. It has been used in gas-chamber executions and as a war gas. It is a highly dangerous disaster hazard; the gas forms explosive mixtures with air and will react with water, steam, acid, or acid fumes to produce highly toxic fumes of cyanides. Hydrocyanic acid is both inflammable and explosive. Hydrogen cyanide is used in producing adiponitrile for nylon, methyl methacrylate, sodium cyanide, cyanuric chloride, chelating agents, and miscellaneous other uses, including in the manufacture of insecticides and rodenticides for fumigating enclosed spaces, ferrocyanides, acrylates, lactic acid, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals.
