Question

In what order should strong acids and water be mixed?

Answer 1

Answer:

If you spit in acid, it spits back! So should you spit in the acid?

Explanation:

May her rest be long and placid;

She added water to the acid;

The other girl did as she oughter;

She added acid to the water.

This is a very important practical tip. Especially as at A level students may sometimes deal with concentrated acids. A small quantity of water in concentrated acid will get very hot as it hydrates the acid, and it may spit. And if you get such a drop in your eye, that's your eye gone. On the other hand, when conc. acid is added to water, it won't spit; the solution will still heat up, but it will do so gradually.
