Question 9

Give equations for formation of two different acids from conc. H2SO4. State the property of sulphuric acid involved in the above formation.

Answer

NaNO3+H2SO4[conc.]<200°CNaHSO4+HNO3\text{NaNO}_3 + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 [\text{conc.}]\xrightarrow{\lt 200 \degree\text{C}} \text{NaHSO}_\text{4} + \text{HNO}_3

NaCl+H2SO4[conc.]<200°CNaHSO4+HCl\text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 [\text{conc.}]\xrightarrow{\lt 200 \degree\text{C}} \text{NaHSO}_\text{4} + \text{HCl}

The property of being a non-volatile acid is used in the above reactions.
