Can you use sulfuric acid on gold?
Sulfuric acid would do nothing to gold, even when heated. Gold is completely invulnerable to acid corrosion, with only aqua regia as an expection.
What is the reaction of sulfuric acid mixed with gold?
Gold does not react with sulfuric acid.The only acid that gold reacts with is aqua regia: a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, optimally in a molar ratio of 1:3.
Can you mix nitric acid and muratic acid?
YES!!! Historically it is known as 'Aqua Regia' (Regal/Royal Water). The ratio of the mixture is HNO3:HCl :: 1:3 On mixing it is a clear fuming acid mixture, but very soon turns yellow orange red. It is named as 'Aqua Regia' because it will dissolve/react with the regal metals, Gold and platinum.
Sulfuric acid plus acetic acid equals?
Hydrochloric acid is HCL Sulfuric acid is H2SO4 Mixing hydrochloric and sulfuric acid would just result in the sulfuric acid sapping (dehydrating) the hydrochloric acid of its water, releasing a small amount of hydrogen chloride. However, no chemical reaction is taking place.
What is a type of exothermic reaction?
Mixing of conc. sulfuric acid with water

Can you make Sulfuric Acid from mixing Sodium Sulfate and Nitric Acid?
No, sulphate salts are very stable and can not be converted into acid.
What is the formula for aqua regia?
There is no single "chemical equation for aqua regia". Aqua regia is a mixture of concentrated nitric and sulfuric acids, which is capable of many reactions. The characteristic that gave aqua regia its name is its ability to dissolve gold, but dissolution is usually not considered a chemical reaction
Name two ways hydrogen is produced in the lab?
By mixing hydroxide and sulfuric acid
Does platinum interact with sulfuric acid?
"Platinum resists sulfuric acid in all concentrations and temperatures."Source: Handbook of Corrosion Data - 2nd Edition, p. 850, ASM International, Materials Park, Ohio, 1995, ISBN: 0-87170-518-4
What happens when you add sulfuric to nitric?
Nothing actually happens. However, if you add concentrated sulphuric acid to fuming nitric acid, you will have created aqua regia which will dissolve gold. Neither acid alone will do this, and it is used as a test for gold. Note. aqua regia is latin for royal water.
What is the rule for mixing acids and water?
When mixing conc. sulfuric acid and water, add acid to water and not vice-versa as that releases lot of energy resulting in injuries.
