Gold refining process aqua regia dissolving reaction. 👉👉👉 www.youtube.com/@MakeGold/videos Aqua regia is a mixture of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and nitric acid (HNO3) at a ratio of either 3:1 or 4:1. It is a reddish-orange or yellowish-orange fuming liquid. The term is a Latin phrase, meaning "king's water". The name reflects the ability of aqua regia to dissolve the noble metals gold, platinum, and palladium. Note aqua regia will not dissolve all noble metals. For example, iridium and tantalum

Aqua Regia (Latin for “royal water”) is an acidic, corrosive, and oxidative mixture of three parts concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCl) and one part concentrated nitric acid (HNO3). It is called aqua regia because it is one of the few acid mixtures that can dissolve the “noble” metals: gold (Au), platinum (Pt), and palladium (Pd). 👉👉👉 www.youtube.com/@MakeGold/videos #aquaregia | Archimedes Channel

Aqua Regia Solution Preparation Slowly add the nitric acid to the hydrochloric acid (NEVER the other way around) to form a 3:1 ratio solution of three parts hydrochloric acid, and one part nitric acid. Stirring with a stir bar and plate is recommended. #ArchimedesChannel | Archimedes Channel
