The GHS hazard statement is H314.
Sulfuric acid is a compound
No. Sulfuric acid is an acid. The alkali metals are metallic elements.
Sulfuric Acid
Sulfuric acid (alternative spelling sulphuric acid) is a strong mineral acid with the molecular formula H2SO4. Its historical name is vitriol. The salts of sulfuric acid are called sulfates. Sulfuric acid is soluble in water at all concentrations.
Yes, although it is different from acid rain on Earth. Earth's acid rain is water with small amounts of sulfuric and nitric acid. On Venus the rain is almost entirely sulfuric acid, with no liquid water. However, this rain evaporates before it reaches the ground.
It is DOT class 8.
Sulfuric acid is Class 8 Corrosives. Class 9 is for hazardous materials that do not meet the definitions of any of the other Classes.
class 8
sulfuric acid or sulphuric acid
Although sulfuric acid (Battery Acid) is non-flammable, contact with metals in the event of a spillage can lead to the liberation of hydrogen gas. The dispersal of acid aerosols and gaseous sulfur dioxide is an additional hazard of fires involving sulfuric acid. It is flammable at any temperature.
Sulfuric acid's primary hazard is that it is not only corrosive, but it is also a dehydrating acid. Just like phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid is so dehydrating that it would suck the water right out from your skin and cells on contact, and it could also result in a thermal burn.
