A corrosive chemical compound is an ACID, which is a substance that has a pH level of less than 7. Acids are typically found in nature and can be used for a variety of purposes, such as cleaning, etching, and manufacturing. Common examples of acids include hydrochloric ACID, sulfuric ACID, and nitric ACID. These acids can cause damage to organic materials, such as skin and clothing, and can be hazardous if not handled properly.
