Sulfuric acid is well known for its ability to act in three distinct ways: as an acid, as an oxidising agent, and as a dehydrating agent; these demonstrations support the third of these. For a suitable audience you can also use the reaction with sucrose to illustrate the oxidising action of concentrated sulfuric acid.

Answer:
Since sulfuric acid is strong acid, it will react with weak amphoteric base water and gives H3O+ ions in dilute solutions. ... It will dissociates into SO3 + H2O, thus will fulfill its desire. So sulphuric acid in concentrated forms gives nacent oxygen and forms sulphurous acid. This nacent oxygen act as oxidizing agent.
