Small amounts of salycilic acid (or 2-Hydroxybenzoic acid) can be beneficial to the skin in sloughing off dead skin cells to reveal much healthier skin below. It is commonly used in the treatment of acne, eczema, and warts.
A salicylic acid peel treats several skin-conditions. The following skin-conditions can benefit from a salicylic acid peel treatment; clogged pores, acne, blackheads and oily, congested skin. The treatment can be used for every skin-type, however best results have those who have an acne-prone skin.
Adding water to the affected area, whether skin or clothes, with water would dilute and wash the acid off.
This depends on the type of acid, and the molarity (strength/ concentration) of the acid. Three molar hydro-chloric acid (3M HCl), for example, would be very irritating to the skin in came into contact with, but the more serious consequences come later, as the acid "eats away" at your skin. A weaker acid, however, such as 0.1 molar citric acid (0.1M C6H8O7) (found in citrus fruits) will not affect your skin much, if at all, but sting in your eye.
Phosphoric acid is corrosive on the skin and eyes. Also inhalation and ingestion must be avoided.
No as it may be the worlds most strongest acid but it is not corosive or toxic

The most widely used home treatments for acne include either the ingredients benzoyl peroxide or salycilic acid. You can also try a non-medicated route such as applying astringents like witch hazel.
It is a must to have a skin care routine that you follow each day. Wash your face twice a day if you have oily skin and once a day if its very dry.

Acid is, in fact, not good for any person. Tends to burn one's skin, please restate your question more clearly.
Acetic acid is the chemical that gives vinegar its characteristic smell and taste. "Glacial" means water-free (no H2O). Glacial acetic acid is simply "pure" acetic acid. It is very strong and will burn the skin. Normal vinegar is mostly water with about 5% acetic acid. Glacial acetic acid should be a safe additive in food as long as the final concentration is less than 25%.
If you crush up a Tylenol pill and mix it with water and then apply it to your pimples, it will dry them out because the medicine has high amounts of Salycilic acid, used in acne treatments and gels.
If you happen to spill acid on your skin. Flush it with water for a good 5 minutes. If you have a situation where you need to neutralize the acid then Baking Soda is the solution in almost every home. But still flush it very well.
Acid RUINS your skin because of the dangerous chemical properties.
