what density does nitric acid have

[boris_73]

what density does nitric acid have at 70% conc, and what density does sulphuric acid have at 80% conc

[budullewraagh]

i believe pure nitric is .7g/cc

[Gilded]

So they're lighter than water? Interesting.

[budullewraagh]

well, at least nitric does

[budullewraagh]

sulfuric's density is 1.8g/cc

[Gilded]

Oh, sorry, I read that you meant that both have equal densities. Silly me.

 

It seems that pure H2SO4 has a density of 1.8g/cc. So 80% H2SO4 20% water has a density 1.64g/cc, or then I'm too tired to do simple math.

i have read that conc nitric acid has a density of 1.73g/ml where would i find the densitys on the internet because if there is a source with densitys of acids then that would help just to clarify

[boris_73]

i think i have found the density of 70% concentrated nitric acid it's 1.42g/ml

[boris_73]

and i know 70% conc sulphuric acid has density of 1.61g/ml
