Why HNO3 is not used in laboratory preparation of hydrogen

Answer»

Answer: NITRIC acid not used in thelaboratory PREPARATION of hydrogen. This is because nitric acid is a strong OXIDISING agent, and oxidises hydrogengas to convert it into the WATER. ... sulphuric acid and dilute hydrochloric acid do not oxidise hydrogen into water hence preferred for thepreparation of hydrogen gas.

Thank You!
