Sulfuric acid is a highly corrosive and strong mineral acid with the chemical formula H2SO4. It is a dense, colorless, odorless, and viscous liquid that is soluble in water and is one of the most widely used chemicals in industry. Sulfuric acid is used in the production of fertilizers, dyes, detergents, and other industrial chemicals. It is also used as a laboratory reagent and in the processing of metals and ores. Sulfuric acid is known for its ability to react violently with many substances, and it should be handled with extreme care.

Acetaldehyde
Acetaldehyde is a simple organic compound with the chemical formula CH3CHO. It is a colorless liquid with a pungent, fruity odor. Here are some key points about acetaldehyde:
- Chemical Structure: Acetaldehyde consists of two carbon atoms, one oxygen atom, and four hydrogen atoms. Its structure is CH3CHO, where the carbon atom in the middle is doubly bonded to an oxygen atom and singly bonded to a hydrogen atom and a methyl group (CH3).
- Occurrence: Acetaldehyde can be found naturally in various ripe fruits, coffee, and heated milk. It is also produced by the oxidation of ethanol (alcohol) by enzymes in the liver and other tissues in humans, making it an intermediate product in alcohol metabolism.

Deionized water 20 litres
Deionized water, also known as demineralized water, is water that has had its mineral ions (such as sodium, calcium, iron, and copper) and dissolved solids removed through a process called ion exchange.
Distilled water, on the other hand, is water that has been purified by boiling it into steam and then condensing the steam back into water. This process removes impurities such as minerals, bacteria, and other contaminants.
Both deionized and distilled water are highly purified forms of water, but the processes used to purify them are different. Deionized water is typically used in laboratory settings or in industrial processes, while distilled water is commonly used in medical applications, humidifiers, and in some consumer products
Xylene 2.5 liters
Xylene refers to a group of three isomeric aromatic hydrocarbon compounds: ortho-xylene, meta-xylene, and para-xylene. It is a colorless, flammable liquid with a sweet odor. Xylene is primarily used as a solvent in various industrial processes, including the production of paints, coatings, adhesives, and rubber. It can also be found in small amounts in gasoline and other petroleum products.
