The most suitable vessel for storing concentrated sulphuric acid is 

(1) Copper vessel 

(2) Aluminium vessel 

(3) Glass vessel

Answer: (3) Concentrated Sulfuric acid can only be stored in glass, no metal lids, some plastic containers. It will attack anything organic, causing severe burns, the good thing is it will not start a fire, but if it goes into contact with metal, it may generate hydrogen gas, an explosion risk.
