Acid is dangerous to humans because it can cause chemical burns upon contact with skin, eyes, or mucous membranes. The high acidity of acids can react with and damage tissues, leading to pain, scarring, and potential long-term health consequences. Ingesting strong acids can also result in serious internal injuries and even be fatal.

Is hydrochloric acid mixed with water dangerous to humans?
Yes, hydrochloric acid can be dangerous to humans if not handled properly. It is a strong acid that can cause skin irritation, burns, and serious damage if it comes into contact with skin or if fumes are inhaled. Precautions should always be taken when working with hydrochloric acid, including wearing protective clothing, gloves, and goggles.
Is acetic acid dangerous for humans?
Concentrated acetic acid (glacial) is pretty corrosive and has a terrible harsh fume. Drinking that is very dangerous as it can corrode and inflame the digestive tract. Diluted acetic acid as vinegar won't do much harm to you as long as you don't drink too much of it.
Acid most dangerous carbonic acid or hydrochloric acid?
Hydrochloric acid is typically considered more dangerous than carbonic acid. Hydrochloric acid is a strong mineral acid that can cause severe burns upon contact with skin or eyes, and inhalation can be harmful to the respiratory system. On the other hand, carbonic acid is a weak acid found in carbonated beverages and is not as corrosive or harmful to health.

What acid are hazardous?
Of the common laboratory acids, the most dangerous to work with is usually concentrated nitric acid because it reacts so strongly with so many chemicals, releasing poisonous gases. It also fumes, can cause explosions, and instantly oxidizes flesh causing severe burns. There is no easy answer to what is the most dangerous acid because some acids are more corrosive, some are poisonous, and some are explosive. The strongest acid is SbF5 in HF. This is rare and the strongest acid one would find in a normal chemistry laboratory is usually hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydriodic acid, or perchloric acid. Hydrofluoric acid is an interesting case - it is a weak acid (it does not ionize) and as a result can be absorbed by the skin very quickly. Once absorbed, it damages tissue causing severe pain, chemical imbalances, and almost certain death if more than 50mL are in contact with skin. Other acids are dangerous because of toxic qualities rather than acidic qualities. Hydrocyanic acid is a poison gas that cannot be detected by everyone. Sulfuric acid is a dangerous dehydrating agent. Hydrochloric acid readily releases toxic fumes and can corrode many metals. Picric acid is extremely explosive. Sulphuric acid can also be dangerous if in contact with eyes, skin, mouth or other acids.
