H2SO4 is dibasic acid (two replacable H+ ions) . In aqueous solution it dissociates in two steps as follows:
H2SO4 + H2O H3O+ + HSO4 | (Ka1 = very large) |
HSO4 + H2O H3O+ + SO42 | (Ka2 = 1.2 x 10–2) |
The formula for dissociation constants are:

The neutral H2SO4 molecule has more tendency to lose a proton (H+) than the Lowry-Bronsted base (which can donate electron i.e. accept a proton H+) HSO -.
This is because a neutral has a much higher tendency to lose a proton than the negatively charged. Thus, the former is a much stronger acid than the latter.

Contact process consists of three steps. First is the burning of sulphide ores to form SO2 The second step (key step) is SO2 is oxidised to SO3 by heating the mixture on the heterogeneous catalyst V2O5.

Now, this step is very crucial for maximising the yield of H2SO4 It can be done by controlling the temperature and pressure of reaction.
The forward reaction is exothermic and there is a decrease in a number of moles and As Le- Chatelier principle states that when a system experiences a disturbance (concentration, pressure changes) it will respond to nullify the changes produced to bring initial condition.
So, when we decrease temperat

H2SO4 is one the most important and widely used chemicals for many purposes. It has following uses:
As an electrolyte sulphuric acid dissociates in aqueous solution to form ions. These ions are responsible for the conduction of electricity. As a result, sulphuric acid is used in the manufacture of the lead storage battery.
As a dehydrating agent (to remove water) because it has a great affinity for water. It doesn't get dissolved in water but absorb it, so it is used as a drying
For removing layers of basic oxides from the metal surfaces like iron, copper, before the metals are galvanized, electroplated. Because when the metals

Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is used for the preparation of aliphatic primary amines. It involves nucleophilic substitution (SN2) of alkyl halides by the anion formed by the phthalimide.But aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with the anion formed by the phthalimide.
Therefore aromatic primary amines cannot be formed by gabriel phthalimide process.

The electronic configuration of S is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4.
One electron from 3p orbital goes to the 3d orbital and S undergoes sp2 hybridization, during the formation of SO2 molecule. Two of these orbitals form sigma bonds with two oxygen atoms and the third contains a lone pair of electrons.
The p-orbital and d-orbital contain an unpaired electron each. An electron in the p-orbital forms p π- p π bond with one oxygen atom and the other electron forms p π- d π bond with the other oxygen.
This is the reason SO2 has a bent structure. Also, it is a resonance hybrid of structures I and II, with equal bond lengths of 143pm
