Automatic decolorization after the concentration of wet phosphoric acid

2012-02-22View Original

Thread Content

Hello everyone. Today we conducted an experiment involving the wet extraction of dilute phosphoric acid (24% P2O5, flesh-colored). After concentration under normal pressure, the color disappeared automatically. Could anyone please explain why this happened?

Check whether your dilute acid contains iodides; the concentrated iodides have been vaporized away

I’ve encountered this problem too; I think it’s due to organic matter – the organic matter breaks down during the concentration process. This is just for reference

Organic matter carbonizes at high temperatures, and thus no color is left; some sources also state this
