Zn+H2SO4(conc.)⟶? is an example of which property of sulphuric acid?
Some properties of sulphuric acid are listed below. Choose the property A, B, C or D which is responsible for the reaction (a) to (e). Some properties may be repeated. A. Acid B. Dehydrating agent C. Non-volatile acid D. Oxidizing agent (a) C12H22O11 + nH2SO4 → 12C + 11H2O + nH2SO4 (b) S + 2H2SO4 → 3SO2 + 2H2O (c) NaCl + 2H2SO4 → NaHSO4 + HCl (d) CuO + 2H2SO4 → CuSO4 + H2O (e) Na2CO3 + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + H2O + CO2
Zn + 2H2SO4 (conc.) → ? is an example of which property of sulphuric acid?
