The MSDS linked is the wrong one. Ashi Starshade (talk) 14:21, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
Image[edit]
Image in infobox is not of chlorauric acid but of granular auric hydrochloride. Gubernatoria (talk) 03:10, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Body art[edit]
current revision states: "For example, it is infrequently used to place gold particles subcutaneously in body art." While this is intriguing, I can't find any evidence of this. I'm removing it until someone can find a source to support the claim. -Verdatum (talk) 15:51, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
Natural occurrence[edit]
Given chlorine is abundant in water and minerals, is the acid found at trace levels in deep ocean water? Is it found in complex salts in areas with gold deposits?- Adam37 Talk 17:22, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
Ambiguous article[edit]
About which compound is this article? Is this article about [H5O2]+[AuCl4]− (which is actually a salt of tetrachloroauric(III) acid, not the tetrachloroauric(III) acid itself) or H[AuCl4] (which is the tetrachloroauric(III) acid) or one of their hydrates? Those two compounds are not the same. This article is water-chauvinistic. Ammonia, ethanol, urea and a bunch of other molecules of crystalisation or solvents can be involved, why assuming water???Bernardirfan (talk) 17:05, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
