Best Answer

Obviously both of them are acids. Both of these compounds can donate protons to other compounds. Both of these compounds can undergo red-ox reactions and participate in them either as oxidizing or reducing agents. Both of these compounds evolve gaseous hydrogen from the reaction with metals, such as magnesium and zinc.

Can sulfuric acid neutralize hydrochloric acid?

No, because they are both acids. Sulfuric acid would only undergo an neutralization reaction when it comes in contact with a base (sodium hydroxide, baking soda, etc). When you mix sulfuric with hydrochloric acid, the only thing that would happen is that the sulfuric acid would dehydrate the hydrochloric acid, causing it to release nasty fumes of hydrogen chloride gas.
