Would this be the same for DMT HCl?
In other words, Should cold water be used when HCl acid baths are done?
The solubility of HCl decreases with hotter temoeratures because HCl is a gas, not a solid, dissolved in water. As it goes with gasses, they are more volatile in hot temperatures and consequently they have a higher propensity to escape off of a solution. The exact same thing happens with carbonated drinks, where the solubility of the gaseous CO2 decreases with temperature.
DMT HCl is a solid and not a volatile gas, so its solubility increases with increased temperature.
