Type your answerto chemicals here... add water to chemicals
Answer:When in doubt add chemicals to water. It's particularly important to add acid to water. Adding a smaller amount of a neutral substance to a more concentrated amount of a reactive substance is more likely to create a violent reaction than the other way 'round. The larger volume of neutral substance is more likely to quell/subdue/dilute the reaction as the reactive substance is added to it.

∙ 13y agoIts very important that you add the acid to the water.Otherwise the acid can splash you and get on your skin and also if it is a concentrated acid, as you dilute it, a lot of heat is generated, and you want the larger volume of water to be able to absorb that heat.

Large water add to small acid?
Never add water to an acid always add small amount of acid slowly in large amount of water.
Add acid to water?
Yes,to dilute acid it is safe to add acid to water than the other way around.
How to make dilute h2so4?
Add acid to water (and NEVER add water to acid). The amount of water, depends on the exact concentration of the dilute acid needed.
How much acid to add to water to pH9?
None. If you add acid to pure water, you lower the pH below 7. There isn't any way to add acid to water to raise the pH.
Why do you put acid in water?
If you add acid to water, the water slowly turns into a dilute solution of acid. If you add water to acid, it creates a large amount of heat (exothermic reaction), which can be very dangerous.
If one wants to top up a tank of muriatic acid should one first add the water or concentrated acid?
When mixing acid and water, always add the acid to the water, and add it slowly. Never add the water to the acid.
Do you add water to acid or add acid to water?

Can you add acid to an ATV battery?
No, but you can add distilled water if it has filler caps and it is low of electrolite. Do not add tap water or acid.

Acid is correctly diluted with water by this method?
Never add water to acid. Think "rootbeer" A&W. Acid into Water.
How is diluting an iced tea is different from diluting an acid?
When you dilute tea, it doesn't matter whether you add tea to water or water to tea. When you dilute acid, you should alwyas add acid to water, not the other way around. This is because water and acid will temporarily heat up; and it is dangerous to have a hot solution of strong acid mix (all the original acid plus the first drops of water to go in).
How should you dilute an acid?
Add specific amount of acid in calculated amount of water.(not water into acid).
