Inorganic acids may react with azo compounds to liberate toxic and flammable NH3 and N2 (Predicted).
Combining azides and acids may yield gaseous HN3, which is toxic and flammable (Jobelius, H., H. Hans-Dieter Scharff. 2002. Hydrazoic Acid and Azides. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA (Online); Urben, P.G. 1995. Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 5th Edition. Volume 2. Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann. pp. 195).
Organic azides are sensitized by strong acids. (Lewis, R.J., Sr. 1992. Sax's Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, 8th Edition. New York: Van Nostrand Reinhold. pp. 312).
