When an old building is to be torn down, Mr. Pham’s company removes the bricks, cleans off the mortar from the bricks, and then sells the bricks to companies that restore historic buildings. Which compound is Mr. Pham’s company most likely to use in its work?

Answer:

hydrochloric acid

Explanation:

The compound Mr. Pham's company used is most likely hydrochloric acid.

Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid and it is applied to remove corrosion and rusts from another body.

  • For industrial purposes, they are used as cleansing agents.

The acid is capable of dissolving and breaking down the rust and corrosion.

A base does not have this property and would not effectively remove the corrosion.

Sodium hydroxide and lithium hydroxide are bases.

Nitric acid is not as strong as hydrochloric acid.
