Cadet's fuming liquid, also known as "Cadet's fuming liquid," is an aqueous solution of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in nitric acid (HNO3). This solution is characterized by its intense yellow-brown color due to the presence of nitrogen dioxide gas, which can dissolve in the acid to form a mixture. Cadet's fuming liquid is used in various chemical processes, including the production of explosives and in the context of certain types of chemical synthesis.
