What is the product of SO3 plus H2O?

SO3 + H2O --> H2SO4 commonly called sulfuric acid.


Is SO3 a Lewis base or Lewis acid?

I think it is acid, because there is a question that asks the acid site of SO3.


Is so3 acidic or basic?

SO3 is an acidic oxide. It reacts violently with water to form sufuric acid, H2SO4


H20 plus so3?

Combining water (H2O) with sulfur trioxide (SO3) would produce sulfuric acid (H2SO4) according to the chemical reaction: H2O + SO3 → H2SO4. Sulfuric acid is a strong mineral acid commonly used in various industries for its corrosive properties and as a chemical reagent.


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.


What acid is formed when SO3 is added to water?

Sulfur trioxide (SO3) reacts with water to form sulfuric acid (H2SO4). This reaction is highly exothermic and produces a large amount of heat.


What are names of the anions in sulfurous acid and chlorous acid?

Sulfurous acid: sulfite, (SO3)-2 Chlorous acid: chlorite, (ClO2)-


What is the formula for oxyacid dervied from SO3 2-?

The oxyacid derived from SO3^2- is sulfite (SO3^2-). The formula for the corresponding oxyacid, sulfurous acid, is H2SO3.


Why is SO3 insoluble in water but soluble in sulphuric acid?

SO3 reacts with water to form sulfuric acid, which then dissolves in water. This reaction is highly exothermic and produces a lot of heat. Therefore, SO3 is not directly soluble in water but dissolves in sulfuric acid, which acts as a solvent for it.


How is formed in the atmosphere?

The burning of coal or oil rich in sulpher releases SO3 to the atmosphere. This combines with water to form Sulpheric acid a strong acid. SO3 + H2O -> H2SO4


What is no2 so2 and so3?

NO2, SO2, and SO3 are chemical compounds. NO2 is nitrogen dioxide, a reddish-brown gas responsible for smog and acid rain. SO2 is sulfur dioxide, a pungent gas produced by burning fossil fuels that can cause respiratory issues and contribute to acid rain. SO3 is sulfur trioxide, a reactive compound that plays a role in forming sulfuric acid in the atmosphere.


What is a balanced symbol equation for sulfuric acid?

So3+h2o==> h2so4
