CuO H2SO4 → CuSO4 H2
This acid can also be used to remove weaker acids from their salts. For example, reaction with sodium acetate (CH3COONa) can produce acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium bisulphate (NaHSO4, reaction 1), and mixing potassium nitrate (KNO3) and sulphuric acid (H2SO4) generates nitric acid (HNO3) and potassium bisulphate (KHSO4, reaction 2):Reaction 1: H2SO4 CH3COONa → NaHSO4 CH3COOH
Reaction 2: H2SO4 KNO3 → KHSO4 HNO3
When combined with nitric acid, sulphuric acid can act both as an acid and as a dehydrating agent, to produce NO2 (nitronium ion).This is characteristic of nitration reactions and is very important in organic chemistry, such as esterification and dehydration reactions.In the presence of superacids, sulphuric acid can also act as a base and itself be protonated, forming H3SO4 ion. This is difficult to control, however, as sulphuric acid undergoes self-ionisation easily to produce H3O ions, preventing the conversion of H2SO4 to H3SO4.

Sulphuric acid is the most widely produced chemical in the world, simply because it has so many uses. We’ll look at a few key uses of sulphuric acid, including its use as a fertiliser, cleaning product, and in batteries. What
Sulphuric acid goes by many names, including oil of vitriol, sulfuric acid, and hydrogen sulphate. But what is sulphuric acid? Sulphuric acid is a strong mineral acid with the chemical formula H2SO4 (it is composed of sulphur, hydrogen, and oxygen).
