Just a bit weaker! Acid meets Water
Pouring hydrochloric acid into water does not make anything new. It just spreads the acid out, making it weaker.
The result
- What you get
- Dilute hydrochloric acid
- When it happens
- At room temperature
Fun fact from Fizzy: Chemists always add acid to water, never water to acid, because it can spit and splash!
🥽 Acids can burn skin and eyes. Always wear goggles and gloves.
