Sulphuric acid acts as dehydrating agent in its reaction with:
Describe the reactions that show (i) Concentrated sulphuric acid is a non-volatile acid. (ii) Concentrated sulphuric acid acts as a dehydrating agent. (iii) Concentrated sulphuric acid is an oxidising agent. (iv) Dilute sulphuric acid behaves as dibasic acid.
Reactions in which sulphuric acid is used as a dehydrating agent are endothermic by nature.
