उत्तर
The theory of manufacture of sulphuric acid by contact process involves following steps:
i. Production of SO2 : SO2 is produced by burning sulphur or roasting iron pyrites.
S + O2 → SO2 Or
4FeS2 + 11O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2
ii. Catalytic oxidation of SO2 by air to give sulphur trioxide:
2SO2 + O2 ⇌ 2SO3 + Heat
iii. Absorption of sulphur trioxide in 98% sulphuric acid to form oleum:
SO3 + H2SO4 → H2S2O7
iv. Dilution of oleum to get sulphuric acid of desired concentration:
H2S2O7 + H2O → 2H2SO4
