Sulphuric Acid Concentrated
Sulphuric Acid Concentrated (Product Code: SCL-987/236) is undiluted analytical reagent grade sulphuric acid used for confirmatory tests, esterification and preparing dilute acid in supervised college and senior-school chemistry laboratories. This dense, strongly corrosive liquid comes in a 500 ml pack with its MSDS and belongs in a dedicated chemistry reagent cabinet for acids. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

What Is Concentrated Sulphuric Acid Used For?
In the brown ring test, the concentrated acid is run slowly down the side of a tilted tube containing a nitrate solution and freshly made ferrous sulphate; a brown ring at the junction of the two layers confirms nitrate. Warming a dry salt with the acid reveals chloride by fumes that form white clouds with ammonia, bromide by reddish-brown vapour and iodide by violet vapour. Organic practicals use a few drops to catalyse the esterification of ethanol with acetic acid, recognised by its fruity smell, and to form the violet ring of Molisch's test for carbohydrates.
Mixing with water releases a great deal of heat, so dilution must always be done by adding acid slowly to water with stirring, never the other way round. Heated tests and sugar-charring demonstrations belong in a fume cupboard, and for school labs a face shield, acid-resistant gloves and a nearby eyewash are sensible minimums. Store the bottle in an acid cabinet, apart from bases, metal powders, oxidisers and organic materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should Sulphuric Acid Concentrated be diluted?
Pour concentrated sulphuric acid slowly into a larger volume of water in heat-resistant glassware, stirring constantly and letting it cool. Adding water to the acid instead can cause violent boiling and spattering, so never reverse the order.
Why must the Sulphuric Acid Concentrated bottle be kept tightly capped?
Because concentrated sulphuric acid absorbs water vapour from the air, which gradually dilutes it and can leave the outside of the bottle wet with acid. Close the cap immediately after each use and wipe the neck before storing.
Should students handle Sulphuric Acid Concentrated directly?
Only senior students under close supervision should handle concentrated sulphuric acid. For routine school tests such as anion analysis and hydrogen preparation, the separate Sulphuric Acid Dilute listing is the safer choice for student benches.
What protective equipment does Sulphuric Acid Concentrated require?
Handling concentrated sulphuric acid calls for splash goggles or a face shield, acid-resistant gloves and an apron, with an eyewash or running water within reach. The MSDS supplied with each 500 ml pack gives full guidance on first aid and spills.
What is the shelf life of Sulphuric Acid Concentrated?
No fixed shelf life is quoted, since shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions. For Sulphuric Acid Concentrated, ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep the bottle sealed in an acid cabinet.
Who supplies Sulphuric Acid Concentrated?
Sulphuric Acid Concentrated is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, Ambala, Haryana, India, in 500 ml analytical reagent packs with an MSDS, for supervised school, college and research laboratories in India and international markets.
Can Sulphuric Acid Concentrated be exported?
It depends on the carrier and destination, because concentrated sulphuric acid travels as a corrosive dangerous good. Contact us with your location and quantity to check the shipping options for international markets before ordering.
