A mineral acid or inorganic acid is any acid derived from an inorganic compound that dissociates to produce hydrogen ions (H+) in water. Mineral acids are highly soluble in water, but tend to be insoluble in organic solvents. The inorganic acids are corrosive.
The mineral acids include the bench acids -- hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid -- so-called because they are the acids most commonly used in a laboratory setting.
A list of the mineral acids includes:
Hydrochloric acid HCl
Nitric acid HNO3
Phosphoric acid H3PO4
