What is the taste of H2SO4?

Answer 1

In the words of Ralph Wiggum: "It tastes like burning."

You should never taste sulfuric acid, since it's highly corrosive. However, extremely dilute sulfuric acid would probably have the sour taste that is characteristic of acids in general.

Answer 2

Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is a strong mineral acid that is highly corrosive and can cause severe burns if it comes into contact with skin. It does not have a taste, as it can quickly damage and destroy the taste buds on the tongue, leading to an absence of taste perception. It is important to handle sulfuric acid with extreme caution due to its hazardous properties.
