Sulphuric acid is used to manufacture:
Correct answer: A. HCL and HN03.
- A. HCL and HN03.
- B. H3P04.
- C. Both A and B
- D. Both HCI and 2COOH.
Explanation
Concentrated sulphuric acid has a high boiling point (356°C). So, it is considered to be non-volatile. Hence, it is used for preparing volatile acids like Hydrochloric acid and Nitric acids from their salts by double decomposition.

About Bronsted-Lowry and Lewis Concepts
The Brønsted-Lowry concept defines acids as proton donors and bases as proton acceptors, producing conjugate acid-base pairs. The Lewis concept extends the idea to electron-pair acceptors and donors, so compounds such as BF3 and NH3 can be treated as acid and base even without proton transfer, unlike the Arrhenius definition.
