YT2095 Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 heating dilute sulphuric acid wont cause a gas problem untill it`s at at abot 98% conc, and no it wont catch fire ever. but at 98% it can easily set fire to other materials by the dehydration reaction. adding the base to the acid was stupid! add the acid to the base and in small amounts at a time, wear eye and hand protection at all times when using conc sulphuric.

Dave Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Also remember that concentrated sulphuric acid is very dangerous; it'll corrode your skin without caring at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleiades Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Hi everyone, this is my first post here, and I hope this thread isn’t dead, but I thought I’d contribute my 2 cents. While browsing the plumbing section of the local hardware store I came across a bottle labeled “professional drain opener” the brand is Rooto. It feels heavy, indicating a high concentration, but I have yet to open it, and so I haven’t done any purity tests, but a google search revealed this brand is about 90% H2SO4 or 18M, just look for any bottles inside plastic bags in the plumbing section. It was $8.85 for 1 quart (.95 liters), if it’s anywhere near that expensive I’ll be surprised, since everything is overpriced here. Now, if I could find a nitric acid source…..

ydoaPs Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Charley was a chemist, but Charley is no more. What Charley thought was H2O, was H2SO4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
