Answer

(i) B: Non-volatile acid

NaCl+H2SO4[conc.]<200°CNaHSO4+HCl\text{NaCl} + \text{H}2\text{SO}4 [\text{conc.}]\xrightarrow{\lt 200 \degree\text{C}} \text{NaHSO}_\text{4} + \text{HCl}

(ii) A: Typical acid property

CuO + H2SO4 (conc.) ⟶ CuSO4 + H2O

(iii) C: Oxidizing agent

S + 2H2SO4 (conc.) ⟶ 3SO2 + 2H2O
