I think you will find there are actually 3 elements in sulphuric acid. The formula gives it away. H2SO4. Hydrogen, Sulphur and Oxygen.

It contains 7 different atoms. 2 Hydrogen (H2) one sulphur (S) and four oxygen (O4). Thus it contains 3 elements.

Is sulfur dioxide a mixture or compound?

It depends a little on your definition. Concentrated Sulfuric Acid can be produced up to 98% or 98.3% pure H2SO4. So, while H2SO4 would be considered a compound, it is never pure, and is always found in a mixture. Most Sulfuric Acid used in the lab is a much more dilute mixture of Sulfuric Acid and Water. Fuming Sulfuric Acid is a mixture between Sulfuric Acid, H2SO4 and sulfur trioxide SO3.


What would happen if you put sulfuric acid in water?

You'd get dilute sulfuric acid. The temperature would go up (possibly a lot), since the dissociation of sulfuric acid in water is exothermic.


How many different elements make up the compound sulfuric acids?

Three. They are hydrogen, sulphur and oxygen. One molecule of sulphuric acid contains 2 hydrogen(H) atoms, 1 sulphur(S) atom, and 4 oxygen(O) atoms. The formula for sulphuric acid is 'H2SO4'.


How do you make 25 percent sulfuric acid from 98 percent sulfuric acid?

Take 1 ml of 98% acid and add to 3 ml of water to get 25% acid. Total volume will be 4 ml (in this case). You can scale up this to any volume you need. (always add acid to water and not water to acid)

What is the atomic number for sulfuric acid?

Atomic number is a property of an atom (An Element) and not a chemical compound. Sodium chloride is a compound and thus it can not have any atomic number. Atomic number is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom of an element. e.g. Carbon has six protons in its nucleus, therefore its atomic number is six. However, Sulfuric Acid has two different elements as its constituents and therefore one can not determine its atomic number.

How sulfuric acid is benificial as compair to hydrochloric acid?

Sulfuric acid can be far more concentrated (up to 97%) compared to hydrochloric acid (up to 40%). This makes it an effective dehydrating acid whereas HCl contains too much water to dehydrate compounds like alcohols.
