Why should we not add water to concentrated acid to form dilute acid?

Answers

Answered by bably66

Dilution of concentrated acid is an exothermic process. If water is added to a concentrated acid, the heat generated may cause the mixture to splash out and cause burns. When the acid is added to water slowly with constant stirring, the mixture will not splash out.

Hope it is helpful.
