Cu + H2SO4 -> CuSO4 + H2
I would suppose that you are off gassing the hydrogen is this reaction and forming a protective patina of copper sulfate on the metal.
Assuming this reaction even could take place.
There are many different concentrations of "concentrated sulphuric acid". It is possible to deduce the concentration of the sulphuric acid by titration.
Neutralize soil and causes corrosion
If water is present it will dilute the sulphuric acid. So if the sulphuric acid has a concentration 1 M , then depending on the volume of water present the concentration will be less than 1M ( < 1M).
We cannot tell the pH value of sulphuric acid without knowing the concentration of the sulphuric acid. As sulphuric acid is acid; so, its pH will be in the range of 1 to 6.9, depending upon its concentration.
Yes it is, especially in above 90% concentration.
3.33%
Concentration of a solution is calcuated by dividing the number of moles by the volume. C = n/v.

sulphuric acid
Concentrated sulphuric acid. It is H2SO4 in a concentration of probably 6M or above.
The concentration of a solution is moles/volume. 2.943g of pure sulphuric acid H2S4 is approximately 15 moles, and 15/150 cm3 is 10.
the h2 ions and the so4 ions in the sulphuric acid help electricity pass through it. this makes it a strong electrolyte.(electrolyte- a liquid which conducts electricity)
