    Concentrated sulfuric acid has a very powerful dehydrating property. Concentrated sulfuric acid is a strong oxidizing agent. Sulfur dioxide, water and SO4 2- ions are evolved
    2 H2SO4 + 2 e- ? SO2 + 2 H2O + SO4 2-
    I would here suggest you to go to your chemistry teacher to get the answer and avoid asking typically technical questions on this forum.

    Sulphuric Acid is hygroscopic, readily absorbing water vapour from the air.
