I got a very good answer here: http://www.chemistryquestion.com/English/Questions/HighSchoolChemistry/1_H2SO4.html

It says that water reacts with sulfuric acid,and the resulting product is already weak to oxidize other compounds.

I hate to appear flippant but it's because it's diluted.

How does asking this anonymously serve a purpose?
