Answer :
The process of dissolving an acid or a base in water is a highly exothermic one. So, we need to take care while mixing concentrated acid or base with water. The acid or a base always be added slowly to water with constant stirring.
If water is added to a concentrated acid or a base the heat generate and may cause the mixture to splash out and glass container may be broken due to excessive local heating which can cause sever burns.
Mixing an acid or a base with water decreases in the concentration of (H3O+ / OH—) ions per unit volume. And, this process is called dilution and acid or base is said to be diluted.
