No, if you have to add fluid to a battery you just add Distilled Water and nothing else. The Electrolyte in a battery is 65% distilled water and 35% sulfuric acid.
Do you have any sulfuric acid on hand? There is enough acid already in the battery. Just add distilled water.
When dilute sulfuric acid is added to a mixture of iron fillings and sulfur powder, a chemical reaction occurs, resulting in the formation of hydrogen gas, iron sulfide, and water. The hydrogen gas will bubble out, while iron sulfide is formed as a solid precipitate.
The acid in automotive batteries is a sulfuric acid/water solution known commercially as "battery acid". There is about 29 t0 32% sulfuric acid in the solution, the rest is water. The purpose of the water is to allow the solution to conduct electricity by chemical conversion in the cell. As the battery is used the water can evaporate or escape raising the concentration o acid. When this happens the efficiency of the battery is reduced. More water must be added to bring the solution back to the proper ratio of acid and water.
Adding sulfuric acid to water is the recommended way of working to avoid accidents.
Sulfuric acid is added to sugar to make carbon
Because the reaction mixture contains a small amount of sulfuric acid, the sodium bicarbonate will neutralize the solution and in the process, will produce CO2.
No.
It depends on what has been added or how dilute it is.
The color is orange to red.
hydrogen gas evolved
Distilled water containing 29% to 32% sulfuric acid. only distilled water should be added to a lead acid battery. due to normal use, the battery will heat and cool, causing the water to naturally aspirate. that is why there are vents on the battery top. only the water evaporates from the battery, so there is no need to add any sulfuric acid. the acid is still there. adding acid will only cause the chemical balance in the battery to shift. this will either make the battery weaker, or most commonly complete make the battery unusable. you want to use distilled water because the impurities that shorten your batteries life are less prevalent, and that'ts the idea to extend you battery's life.
If you add zinc to sulfuric acid, you will get hydrogen gas as a product.
