hydracid Chem.|haɪˈdræsɪd| [f. hydro- d + acid. Cf. F. hydracide, and hydro-acid.] A term applied to an acid containing hydrogen, to distinguish it from an oxyacid, or oxacid, containing oxygen; now esp. to the halogen acids, or simple compounds of hydrogen with chlorine, bromine, iodine, fluorine, or cyanogen.
1826Henry Elem. Chem. I. 374 These results are calculated on the supposition that hypo-phosphorous or per⁓phosphorous acid is a binary compound of oxygen and phosphorus; but it is doubtful whether it may not be a triple compound of oxygen, phosphorus, and hydrogen, or a hydracid. 1831T. P. Jones Convers. Chem. xxiii. 231 There are several..acids in which hydrogen performs the office once supposed to belong exclusively to oxygen..Acids of this kind are called hydracids. 1854J. Scoffern in Orr's Circ. Sc., Chem. 351 Hydrosulphuric acid is the first hydrogen acid, or hydr-acid, that has..come under our notice. 1864–72Watts Dict. Chem. II. 669 Ampère, in 1810, suggested that it (HF) was a hydracid analogous to hydrochloric acid; and this..was..confirmed by Davy. 1889Muir & Morley Watts' Dict. Chem. II. 702/1 The name [hydracid] is more particularly applied when it is desired to distinguish between two classes of compounds of the same element,..thus we speak of the oxy-acids and the hydracids of the halogen elements. b. attrib. or adj. Of or belonging to a hydracid.
1854J. Scoffern in Circ. Sc., Chem. 352 The attempt to assimilate oxyacid salts with the type of hydracid salts. |
