Is sulfuric acid reacts with all organic compounds?
Does Sulfuric Acid React with All Organic Compounds? A Focus on Alkanes
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
Sulfuric acid does not react with all organic compounds, specifically highlighting that it does not react with alkanes. The discussion emphasizes that alkanes, which are saturated hydrocarbons, remain largely unreactive in the presence of sulfuric acid. This conclusion is supported by the lack of chemical interaction between sulfuric acid and alkanes, making them stable under such conditions.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of organic chemistry principles
