Explanation:

If you add water to acid it forms an extremely concentrated solution of acid initially. So much heat is released that the solution may boil very violently, splashing concentratedacid out of the container and all this because the reaction is exothermic. ... So it is always safer to add acid to water, and not water toacid.

We should add acid to water because,

If we add water to acid, so much heat will be during the reaction.

• This reaction is exothermic which is extremely hot.

This may break the glass container.

Not only the glass container breaks but also the hot content cause an explosion and spill on our cloths.

• This results to the serious acid burns.

Hence, we should add acid to water but not water to acid.

• One precautive method while mixing this content is wearing googles and gloves.
