Sorbic acid, or 2,4-hexadienoic acid, is a natural organic compound used as a food preservative. It has the chemical formula C 6 H 8 O 2. It is a colourless solid that is slightly soluble in water and sublimes readily.
Sulfuric acid in its pure form is a colorless viscous liquid commonly called oil of vitriol. The chemical formula for sulfuric acid is H 2 SO 4 and it is commercially available as a 96-98% solution or 18M H 2 SO 4. Concentrated sulfuric acid is covalent in nature as the acid is unionized. The atoms in the molecule are covalently bonded to one another. In this form sulfuric acid can be transported in stainless steel tankers. If concentrated sulfuric acid is added to water the reaction is extremely exothermic due to formation of hydrogen ions.
