•Paper battery is the one that holds promise for new types of
lightweight, high-performance energy storage.
• You can implant a piece of paper in the body and blood would
serve as an electrolyte.
• As the ionic liquid does not contain any water, there will be nothing to
evaporate and the use of ionic liquid in making paper batteries makes
the battery to withstand at extreme temperatures.
• One should always add the acid to the water rather than the
water to the acid. Because the reaction is in an equilibrium that
favors the rapid protonation of water, addition of acid to the water
ensures that the acid is the limiting reagent.
• The reaction with iron shown below is typical for most of these
metals, but the reaction with tin produces sulfur dioxide rather than
hydrogen.
• Hence hot concentrated acid reacts with tin, zinc and copper to
produce the salt, water and sulfur dioxide, whereas the dilute acid
reacts with metals high in the reactivity series to produce a salt
and hydrogen.
• Concentrated sulfuric acid has a very strong affinity for water. It is
sometimes used as a drying agent and can be used to dehydrate
(chemically remove water from) many compounds, e.g., carbohydrates.
• When the concentrated acid mixes with water, large amounts of heat are
released.
• The dilute acid has most of the properties of common strong acids. It
turns blue litmus red.
• It reacts with many metals (e.g., with zinc), releasing hydrogen gas, H2,
and forming the sulfate of the metal.
• It reacts with most hydroxides and oxides, with some carbonates and
sulfides, and with some salts. Since it is dibasic (i.e., it has two
replaceable hydrogen atoms in each molecule).
