Sulfuric acid (alternative
spelling sulphuric acid), also known as vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of
the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen, with molecular formula H2SO4. It is a
colorless, odorless, and syrupy liquid that is soluble in water and is
synthesized in reactions that are highly exothermic.
Its corrosiveness can be mainly
ascribed to its strong acidic nature, and, if at a high concentration, its
dehydrating and oxidizing properties. It is also hygroscopic, readily absorbing
water vapor from the air.[5] Upon contact, sulfuric acid can cause severe
chemical burns and even secondary thermal burns; it is very dangerous even at
moderate concentrations.
