Concentrated nitric acid can be neutralized by slowly adding a base, such as sodium hydroxide, calcium carbonate, or ammonia solution, while stirring continuously until the pH reaches around 7. It is important to handle the neutralization process carefully due to the exothermic nature of the reaction and the potential for splattering.
What else can I help you with?
What compound is made when nitric acid is neutralised?
A Nitrate salt depending on what was used to neutralise the acid. E.g. If you used copper to neutralise the nitric acid then copper nitrate would be produced.
Is nitric acid a dilute acid?
Nitric acid can be dilute or concentrated. This is simply a matter of how much of it you have in a given amount of a solution, which is variable.
Can ethanoic acid neutralise nitric acid?
No, ethanoic acid (acetic acid) cannot neutralize nitric acid. Nitric acid is a strong acid and acetic acid is a weak acid, so the reaction between them would not result in neutralization.
What is the colour of concentrated nitric acid?
The nitric acid used in laboratory is colorless. The very concentated nitric acid - the fumans acid - with dissolved nitrogen oxides, can release white, red or brown fumes, very corrosive and toxic.
Comparison between dilute solution of nitric acid and a concentrated nitric acid?
A dilute solution of nitric acid has a lower concentration of nitric acid molecules compared to a concentrated solution. This leads to the dilute solution having a lower acidic strength and being less corrosive. Concentrated nitric acid, on the other hand, has a higher concentration of nitric acid molecules, making it more acidic and corrosive.
Does nitric acid neutralise ammonia?
Nitric is an acid.Ammonia is a base.So it become neutralized.
How do you neutralise a concentrated acid?
by the addition of base

Effects of concentrated nitric acid on water samples containing mercury?
Mercury (as a metal) is soluble in concentrated nitric acid.
How does concentrated nitric acid affects water samples containing mercury?
Mercury (as a metal) is soluble in concentrated nitric acid.
What is a chemical reagent of NaCl?
concentrated nitric acid concentrated sulphuric acid

When concentrated nitric acid is heated with sulfur whih acid is obtained?
Sulphuric acid
What do they mean when they say that concentrated nitric acid is 16 molar?
16 molar nitric acid is highly concentrated and corrosive in the extreme. It means that in 1(one) litre of solution, there are 16 (sixteen) moles of nitric acid. NB Under weaker solutions of nitric acid, the dissolution of copper has to be heated. However, in 16M nitric acid , copper is readily dissolved without heating. In the lab. take no more than 5 cm^(3) at a time, and handle it in the fume cupboard. TREAT VERY CAREFULLY!!!!! Have a solution of calcium hydroxide readily available in order to neutralise any spillages.
