Internal 37. Priyanka performed an experiment to understand that heat is prod sulphuric acid is slowly added into a beaker containing water. For this, she took 10 mL water in a beaker 1 a few drops of concentrated H₂SO4 to it. Then, she swirled the beaker slowly. During the process, a vigourous reaction takes place. It is an exothermic process.
(a) Why is it recommended that the acid should be added to water and not water to the acid?
(b) How will the concentration of hydrogen ions gets affected if an acid is diluted?
(c) What is this process called? Define the process. OR 1 2 2 If we have hydrochloric acid and acetic acid of equal concentration, which will be a stronger acid and why?
