H2SO4

--------

SO42- + 2H+

--------------

Three, counting all ions. The two protons that can be donated in solution ( a two step reaction that you learn at the college level ) and the polyatomic ion sulfate.

What is the OH concentration of sulfuric acid?

That would depend on the concentration of the sulfuric acid.


What is the name of an acid that donates two hydrogen ions?

There are many such acids including sulfuric acid, sulfurus acid hydrogen sulfide.


Is sulfuric acid a nonelectroylte?

Dilute solutions of sulfuric acid conducts electricity because there are free ions, although concentrated sulfuric acid don't.


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 or base?

Sulfuric Acid is a powerful acid and not a base.


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.


Which react faster HCL or sulfuric acid?

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) generally reacts faster than sulfuric acid (H2SO4) because HCl is a stronger acid. HCl readily dissociates into H+ and Cl- ions, making it a more efficient proton donor compared to sulfuric acid. Additionally, the presence of sulfate ions in sulfuric acid can hinder the reaction kinetics compared to the simple chloride ions in hydrochloric acid.


Why is Concentrated sulfuric acid a weaker acid compared to dilute sulfuric acid?

Concentrated sulfuric acid can act as a weaker acid compared to dilute sulfuric acid because in concentrated form, there are fewer water molecules available to donate protons, leading to fewer acidic reactions. Dilute sulfuric acid, on the other hand, has more water molecules to facilitate proton donation, making it a stronger acid.


When sulfuric acid is added to water how many ions does each molecule form?

In dilute sulfuric acid there are only ions: Almost two H+, almost one SO42- and a very small amount (<1%) HSO4- ions.


What is the balance chemical equation for sulfic acid?

The chemical formula of sulfuric acid is H2SO4.


Is a nonelectrolyte H 2 SO 4 sulfuric acid?

No, H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) is considered a strong electrolyte because it dissociates completely into ions in solution, allowing it to conduct electricity. Nonelectrolytes do not dissociate into ions in solution and do not conduct electricity.


Can you call sulfuric acid for hydrogen sulfate?

Yes, sulfuric acid can be called hydrogen sulfate because it is an acid comprised of hydrogen ions and sulfate ions. The chemical formula for sulfuric acid is H2SO4, which indicates its composition of hydrogen and sulfate ions.
