← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when concentrated sulfuric acid reacts violently?
A)Hydronium ions concentration increases exponentially ✓
B)Covalent network structures quickly dissolve
C)Metallic bonding characteristics are induced
D)Hydrogen bonding interactions become stronger
💡 Explanation
Concentrated sulfuric acid reacting violently with water increases hydronium ions because autoionization of water is disrupted by the exothermic dissolution, due to a change in the ion product. This creates increases in hydronium concentration, rather than covalent, metallic attractions or strengthening hydrogen bonds.
