A large amount of heat is released when strongstrong acids like Sulphuricsulfuric acid,HCl and HCl are. mixed mixed with water.First First,adding adding more acid. releases releases more heat,as as it is exothermic.
If you add water to acid it forms extremely concentrated solution of. acid initially. So much heat is released. that the solution may boil very violently, splashing concentrated acid out of the container and all this because acid is
exothermicIf you add water to acid it forms an extremely concentrated solution of acid initially. So much heat is released that the solution may boil very violently, splashing concentrated acid out of the container and corrosiveall this because the reaction is exothermic.
On the other hand, adding acid to water, the solution that forms is. very dilute. and the small. amount of heat. released is not enough to vaporize and. spatter it. So it is always safe to add. Acid to water, and never the reverse.
I hope you understandOn the other hand, adding acid to water, the solution that forms is very dilute and the small amount of heat released is not enough to vaporize it. So it is always safer to add acid to water, and not water to acid.
