Best Answer

Oleum usually weight twice the water, density in SI varies between 1.9 - 2.0 kg/L. For Imperial unit it is approximately 16 Pound/Gallon. I suggest to verify concentration of Oleum for the exact density.

What is the molecular formula of oleum?

Oleum or fuming sulfuric acid refers to a solution of various compositions of sulfur trioxide (SO3) in sulfuric acid (H2SO4), which can also be described by the formula H2SO4.xSO3 where x is defined as the molar free sulfur trioxide content.As being a mixture it does not have a chemical structural formula.


Can ninety two percent sulfuric acid prepared by adding liquid SO3 to eighty four percent sulfuric acid?

Yes, BUT... Liquid SO3 is HIGHLY reactive and not readily available. Pure SO3 reacts readily (and violently) with water or sulfuric acid. To manufacture sulfuric acid, dilute gaseous SO3 is absorbed in sulfuric acid to increase the concentration of the acid. 100% sulfuric acid can still absorb more SO3. When extra SO3 is dissolved in 100% H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) the solution is called oleum or fuming sulfuric acid. In general, oleum is used when free SO3 is required.
