Sulfuric Acid: # 1 Chemical S(s) + O2(g) SO2(g) 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) 2 SO3(g) uses V2O5 catalyst SO3(g) + H2O(l) H2SO4(aq) Why it’s so popular: H = -436 kJ/mol
S(s) + O2(g) SO2(g) 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) 2 SO3(g) uses V2O5 catalyst SO3(g) + H2O(l) H2SO4(aq) Where have you seen this chemistry before?

Hydrochloric Acid 1. Classic Salt-Cake Process: 2 NaCl + H2SO4Na2SO4 + 2 HCl 2. Hargreaves Process: 2 NaCl + SO3+ ½ O2 + H2O Na2SO4 + 2 HCl 3. Direct Process (only when high purity is needed): H2 + Cl2 2 HCl 4. By-product of organic syntheses: most HCl comes from this
