The chemical difference is the oxidation state of sulfur, but only this makes a great difference in the allover chemical properties:
- H2SO3, sulfurous acid, oxidation state +4, weak diprotic acid, only stable in water, without it will decompose into sulfurous oxide (gas, SO2)
- H2SO4, sulfuric acid, oxidation state +6, strong (second protolysis is relatively strong) diprotic acid, hygroscopical with and very stable in water.
