Why should water never drop-wise to concentrated sulfuric acid?

Adding water to acid releases heat and may cause the acid to splatter.


Is cesium malleable?

Caesium melts at 84 degrees Fahrenheit and at room temperature has about the consistency of toothpaste. I'm not sure if that's technically "malleable" or not; if you tried to take an actual malleus (hammer) to it it would probably splatter. At lower temperatures, when it's not about to melt, it would indeed be malleable.


2 If a small amount of sulfuric acid is spilled near the reagent bottles in the hood the best thing to do first would be?

Pour powder sodium bicarbonate on the spilled acid to neutralize it. In fact, sodium bicarbonate can be used on either basic or acidic spills, because it is an amphoteric substance. DO NOT add water, especially if the acid is highly concentrated, as it may splatter and contaminate you work station. If the acid is not very concentrated, you can just flush everything with plenty of water and remove all bottles, beakers, etc. from your work station ASAP! Wear gloves, goggles and a lab coat at all times, of course!


What is cold Hydrochloric acid?

I'm not quite sure if you've formulated your question correctly. Hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq), is what it is, whether cold or hot. When you dilute concentrated HCl the dilution reaction releases a lot of heat (more of it the more conc. the HCl is to begin with). Depending on how much you are diluting may cause the reaction vessel to feel warm (or even hot) to the touch. When you dilute concentrated HCl you should determine how much water it will take and then add the HCl slowly to most of the water required. The water has a high specific heat and can absorb the heat being generated (but you still add the acid slowly). You don't add the water to the conc. HCl. The heat generated can be enough to pretty much instantaneously boil the water and it can splatter in your face (carrying some of the acid with it) causing a severe burn.
