ELI5: How come the glass container doesn’t dissolve when dissolving thing in acid ?

Acids don't universally attack *everything*.  Most acids won't attack glass.  Except for those that do, like Hydrofluoric acid (HF), Phosphoric acid, and Phosphorus acids.  When you get one of those acids, it comes in a plastic bottle.  A bottle which would melt if exposed to several other acids.
