0826D 00025 is referred as IODIC ACID AR under Research Lab Fine Chem Industries catalogue.0826D 00025 IODIC ACID AR is of analytical reagent grade. It is available as a whitish colored powder with solubility in water up to 269 g/100ml.It is a non-flammable solid and has a melting point of 110 C (230 F; 383 K). Iodic acid contains iodine in the oxidation state +5 and it is one of the most stable oxo-acids of the halogens in its pure state. When it is heated it dehydrates to iodine pentoxide

Which then on further heating decomposes to iodine, oxygen and oxides of iodine.

It is a relatively strong acid with pKa value of 0.75. It is a very strong oxidizer in acidic solutions compared to basic solutions. When it acts an oxidizing agent the reaction yields iodine or iodide ion. It is used as a strong acid in analytical chemistry and can be used for the synthesis of alkyl halidelodic acid. It can be used to standardize solutions of weak and strong bases with indicators like methyl red or methyl orange.
