What happens when you mix nitric acid and sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid?

Answer 1

BOth hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid are just ions dissolved in water at a certain percentage (i.e. 30%) So, mixing them will just be an aqeous solution, say 15%HCl and 20%H2SO4, a stronger or a weaker acid depending on the ratios you mix it in and the original concentration of each. They should not interact since water's hydrogen bonds would just split up the molecules into ions H+, Cl-, and SO4(2-). actually it turns into a wax like substance, but my ratios were 30% HCl and unknown H2SO4, 75-90% strength. just mix them and do it outside to see, ive done it before watch for heat and splashing.

Answer 2

You get a mixture of acids. Also, if you don't do it right, the water content of the hydrochloric acid will boil... perhaps explosively. And that will probably liberate hydrogen chloride gas, which if you don't die from acid all over your face will be a concern as it reforms hydrochloric acid inside your lungs.

So if you need to ask the question, maybe you shouldn't do this.

Answer 3

When nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and hydrochloric acid are mixed together, a highly corrosive and toxic mixture is formed. This combination can release noxious fumes, cause severe chemical burns on contact with skin, and react violently with organic materials. It is important to handle these acids with extreme caution and under controlled conditions.

Answer 4

Manganese dioxide reacts with Hydrochloric acid to produce Manganese(II) chloride, Water and Chlorine.

MnO2 + 4 HCl ----> MnCl2 + 2 H2O + Cl2

Answer 5

Hydrogen is produced.
