Best Answer

Sulphuric acid will react with calcium hydroxide(lime water) to give calcium sulphate.

Initially slightly white turbidity may be seen but then the turbidity dissolves and calcium sulphate solution is obtained.

Heat is released and temperature of solution rises.

Note - Lime water is saturated solution of calcium hydroxide.

Incorrect. The most common pH of water is 7. Sulfuric acid usually has a pH of 0-3 depending on purity.

By adding sulfuric acid (pH 0-3) to water (pH 7), the pH of the water would decrease from 7 down towards to the pH of the sulfuric acid. The more of the acid that is added, the pH would continue to decrease until it matches that of the full strength acid.

How do you reduce water pH?

Lower pH by adding muriatic acid.

What you pH value when 100 percent sulfuric acid?

100% sulfuric acid rapidly decomposes until it reaches a concentration of 98%. This concentration is usually referred to as concentrated sulfuric acid. The pH value of 98% sulfuric acid is approximately -1.5 For comparison, sulfuric acid of this concentration has about 300 times as many active hydrogen ions as stomach acid (approximate pH 1).

On addition of concentrated Hydro chloric acid to water does the pH of the acid change?

Yes, pH depends both on the strength of the acid and the concentration. Adding the acid to water will dilute it, creating a solution with a higher pH.


Why does a 1 molar solution of sulfuric acid have lower pH than 1 molar solution of acetic acid?

Sulfuric acid is a stronger base, meaning it more completely dissociates. Acetic acid does not completely dissociate, and therefore does not change the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution to the extent that sulfuric acid does. Since pH = -log[Hydrogen ions], sulfuric acid will have a lower pH.


What is the effect of adding the sulfuric acid before KI in iodometric titration?

Sulphuric acid helps in maintaining pH around 3-4 which further helps in liberation of iodine upon adding KI solution.
