How can sulfuric acid be both a result and a cause?

It is both result and cause because....... it is a result because the the sulfric acid combines together with coal and nitrogen acid. it is a cause because it can damage house and it's so acid plants no alive. :D


Why do you not test sulfates with sulfuric acid?

Sulfate ions (SO4^2-) do not react with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) because they are already in the sulfate form and are not further oxidized or reduced by sulfuric acid. The reaction of sulfuric acid with sulfates would not result in a color change or a precipitate formation, making it impractical as a test for sulfates.


What acid is safer sulfuric or nitric acid?

They are both dangerous. But if I had to choose, I would say nitric acid. Even if sulfuric acid could cause thermal burns along with chemical burns due to its dehydrating properties, it is nowhere as toxic as nitric acid.


Is there any dative bond in sulfuric acid?

No, sulfuric acid does not have a dative bond. Sulfuric acid is a strong acid that typically dissociates into hydronium ions and sulfate ions in solution. Dative (or coordinate) bonds occur when both electrons in the bond come from the same atom, which is not the case in sulfuric acid.


Is sulfuric acid hyrdrochloric acid?

No, sulfuric acid is not hydrochloric acid. Sulfuric acid has the chemical formula H2SO4, while hydrochloric acid has the chemical formula HCl. They are two distinct acids with different chemical properties and uses.


What two acids in pollution make acid rain?

Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides both react with water in the atmosphere to form acids, sulfuric acid and nitric acid.


Does sulphuric acid and sulfuric acid are the same?

Yes. For the most part sulphuric is the British spelling and sulfuric is the American spelling.


Which is stronger sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid?

It is not a contest here. These are both strong acids; which means they disassociate almost 100% in solution.


Which of the shows both the correct formula and correct name of an acid?

Sulfuric acid with the formula H2SO4.


Will sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid corrode aluminum?

Yes, both sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid can corrode aluminum. However, hydrochloric acid is generally considered less aggressive towards aluminum compared to sulfuric acid. The rate of corrosion depends on factors such as concentration, temperature, and exposure time.


What do sulfur and sulfuric acid have in common?

They both contain the element Sulfur


Sulphuric acid is diluted by adding water but not water into acid?

Correct. When diluting sulfuric acid, it should be added slowly to water while stirring constantly. This is to prevent excessive heat generation from the exothermic reaction that occurs when concentrated sulfuric acid is mixed with water, which could cause the solution to splatter or boil dangerously.
