Jun 19, 2021 at 1:34 | comment | added | Nicolau Saker Neto | Presumably the concentration in the graph is percent by weight. If so, then it's interesting to note that an equimolar mixture of $\ce{H2O}$ and $\ce{H2SO4}$ represents a 84.5 wt% solution, whereas a 1:2 molar mixture represents a 91.6 wt% solution. I'll be surprised if this is purely coincidental. | |
