What is left when you evaporate dilute sulfuric acid?

Driving off the water from dilute sulfuric acid will increase the concentration of the acid to the point where it will contain virtually no water.


Is Mercury dilute sulphuric acid?

No, mercury is a chemical element, and sulfuric acid is a different chemical compound. Mercury is a metal that is liquid at room temperature, while sulfuric acid is a strong mineral acid commonly used in various industries.


How do you make concentrated sulfuric acid from dilute sulfuric acid?

Concentrated sulfuric acid can be made from dilute sulfuric acid by removing the water through a process such as distillation or evaporation. This can be achieved by heating the dilute sulfuric acid to bring it to its boiling point and capturing the vapors that are released, leaving behind the more concentrated sulfuric acid.


What is the ratio of water and concentrated sulfuric acid in dilute sulfuric acid?

The ratio of water to concentrated sulfuric acid in dilute sulfuric acid is typically 10:1, meaning there is about 10 times more water than concentrated sulfuric acid in the solution. This dilution is necessary to reduce the concentration of sulfuric acid for safety and handling purposes.


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.

Is dilute sulfuric acid a stronger acid compared to concentrated sulfuric acid?

No, although "concentrated" sulfuric acid (essentially pure H2SO4) is less dissociated than dilute sulfuric acid, simply because there's no water around for it to dissociate in.


Is concentrated sulfuric acid stronger than dilute sulfuric acid?

When the concentration is considered, concentrated acid contains more molecules than the dilute acid. It is only one way to measure the strength. If we consider the reactivity with the absence of water and moisture, dilute sulfuric acid is more reactive than the concentrated acid.


Is dilute sulphuric acid basic or acidic?

Dilute sulfuric acid is still acid. It is NOT basic at all.


What metal that reacts with dilute sulfuric acid to produce hydrogen?

Zinc is a metal that reacts with dilute sulfuric acid to produce hydrogen gas.


Which one H2so4 is most dangerous concentration or dilute?

Concentrate Sulfuric Acid is more dangerous as it is a purer substance. Anything which is dilute has been diluted (mixed) with another substance, usually water.


What happens when copper is reacted with dilute sulfuric acid?

Copper does not react with dilute Sulphuric acid.


What percent by volume of acid is in dilute sulfuric acid?

The answer depends on the dilution factor and if the sulfuric acid was 100% to start.
