Both ways dilute the acid, however adding the water to the acid releases heat quicker, which can pose an unnecessary hazard.
Dissolution of SO3 in water. to form sulphuric Acid. Industrially, sulphur trioxide is dissolved in sulphuric acid to form oleum. Oleum ( fuming sulphuric acid) is seriously nasty stuff. SO3 + H2SO4 = H2S2O7 The oleum is then slowly dissolved in water to form sulphuric acid of the given molarity(strength). H2S2O7 + H2O = 2H2SO4 It is done this way in order to prevent 'spitting and fuming'. added to which you form twice a mush sulphuric acid.
Yes, vinegar is made up mostly of acetic acid diluted in water, making it an aqueous solution of an acid.
Such reactions are known as HYDRATION and are performed in presence of sulphuric acid.
When water vapor in the air mixes with sulfur oxides, it forms sulfuric acid. This can lead to acid rain, which can be harmful to the environment by damaging vegetation, aquatic ecosystems, and infrastructure.
When sulphur burns, it reacts with oxygen to form sulphur dioxide (SO2), which can then combine with water in the atmosphere to create sulphuric acid (H2SO4). This acid falls back to the surface as acid rain, causing environmental damage to soil, water bodies, and vegetation.
No. It is a mixture of sulphuric acid and water.
Probably diluted sulphuric acid.
To prepare 0.25N sulphuric acid from 2N sulphuric acid, you can dilute the 2N solution by adding 7 parts of water to 1 part of the 2N solution. This will result in a final 0.25N sulphuric acid solution.
It can be diluted by adding the appropriate amount of water to the solution.
diluted acid is less concentrated i.e. it is mixed with water and a less harmful(like sulphuric acid.) whereas concentrated acid is in its original form...
One way to convert dilute sulphuric acid to concentrated sulphuric acid is through a process called evaporation. In this method, the dilute acid is heated to evaporate the water content, leaving behind the concentrated acid. Another method involves adding concentrated sulphuric acid to the dilute solution until the desired concentration is achieved.
When copper reacts with dilute sulphuric acid, copper sulfate and hydrogen gas are produced. The copper sulfate formed will be a blue solution. This reaction is a redox reaction, where copper is oxidized and hydrogen is reduced.
To dilute concentrated sulfuric acid, always add the acid to water slowly while stirring constantly. Never pour water into concentrated acid, as this can cause a violent exothermic reaction. It is important to wear appropriate personal protective equipment and work in a well-ventilated area when handling sulfuric acid.
It is an exo thermal reaction. It means, heat is produced when they get mixed together.So, we have to be very, very careful while adding water with sulphuric acid, in case to get it diluted, because enormous heat will be produced.You should not pour water on sulphuric acid kept in a bowl. It is very dangerous. Why?Just think. When you pour water on sulphuric acid, enormous heat will be produced which make water to expand abruptly and so an explosion becomes possible which in turn spills the acid all around and even on the person who has poured water on it.So the intelligent way is, instead adding water to the acid it will be better adding acid to water. That too, using a glass rod. Sulphuric acid is poured in smaller amount at top edge of the glass rod kept inclined in a bowl containing water. The acid slowly descends into the water and as soon as it descends heat will be produced. So using another glass rod we have to stir well the water in the bowl so that the heat produced will be distributed all over.This is the right technique to prepare dilute sulphuric acid.The balanced equation is:H2SO4 + 2H2O -> 2H3O+ + SO42-
it is called either Pyrosulfuric Acid or Disulfuric Acid or oleam. Even though you can make sulphuric acid by combining SO3 and H20,the process is extremely dangerous.thus, SO3 is first mixed with previously made sulphuric acid. The chemical process isSO3 + H2SO4 -> H2S2O7This H2S2O7 (oleam) is diluted in water to give sulphuric acid.
when we add water n sulphuric acid then dilute sulphuric acid is formed. But we have to mix concentrated acid to water not water to acid otherwise the container in which u r mixing may explode because this reaction is highly exothermic.
Yes, nitric acid can be diluted with water to reduce its concentration and acidity. It is important to add the acid to water slowly while stirring to prevent splashing or releasing heat. Always follow proper safety precautions when handling and diluting nitric acid.
