Is 98% acid (concentrated sulfuric acid) considered fuming sulfuric acid? Should the fire hazard be classified as Category B? ?

Greater than 100%, and it is also not a flammable liquid

Fuming sulfuric acid is classified as Category B, while concentrated sulfuric acid is classified either as Category B or Category C

So, does that 98 acid belong to Category B or Category C? ? ?

Acid 98 is usually considered as a pentane-type compound.

For Category B, there’s no doubt about it – they are not strong oxidizers of Category A

Excluding fuming sulfuric acid, these are two different concepts

Concentrated sulfuric acid is definitely not fuming sulfuric acid; fuming sulfuric acid is formed when concentrated sulfuric acid absorbs sulfur trioxide, and their appearances are quite different

There are two types: concentrated sulfuric acid and fuming sulfuric acid. Fuming sulfuric acid is a sulfuric acid solution of sulfur trioxide, and it comes in different grades depending on its concentration
