   What will sulfuric acid do to sugar? ??? I saw somewhere that when when sulfuric acid was poured on a chocolate bar  the chocolate turned into a gummy substance that the acid had a hard time dissolving. Would this really work? :borg:

jdurg:
I know that if you pour concentrated sulfuric acid over pure sugar, it will dehydrate the sugar and leave you with some steam and pure carbon.  

vulcan2.0:
I see. But what about the chocolate?

budullewraagh:
the not so soluble compound was the carbon.

vulcan2.0:
So in theory what I saw should work,no?
