==========================
⭐The process of adding water to a concentrated acid is called Dilution and the acid is said to have been diluted .
⭐Now, this process of diluting an Acid needs proper caution and care .
These are :
↩Water Should not be added to acid . This may result in a splash damaging your clothes and skin.
↩Acid should be added to water ; drop by drop with a dropper .
↩Also , we need to stir the mixture continuously as the process is Highly Exothermic and hence ,the beaker may break due to excessive Local Heating.
