Question

why is water not added to acid for dilution of it​

Answer 1

Answer:

It causes Explosion

Explanation:

Water when added to a acid, It reacts vigorously with water to give away heat as it is a dissociation as well as exothermic reaction. so, adding water to concentrated acid will cause explosion due to release of high heat energy

Answer 2

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Answer࿐}}}}}}$

A large amount of heat is released when strong acids are mixed with water. Adding more acid releases more heat.If you add acid to water, the solution that forms is very dilute and the small amount of heat released is not enough to vaporize and spatter it. So Always Add Acid to water, and never the reverse.
