Determine how much monohydrate can be extracted with 320 kg of sulfur.

1. Sulfuric acid is called monohydrate, we write down the equations for its production:

S + O2 = SO2;

2SO2 + O2 = 2SO3;

SO3 + H2O = H2SO4;

2.Calculate the chemical quantities:

n (S) = m (S): M (S) = 320: 32 = 10 kmol;

n (S) = n (SO2) = n (SO3) = n (H2SO4) = 10 kmol;

3.Calculate the mass of sulfuric acid:

m (H2SO4) = n (H2SO4) * M (H2SO4);

M (H2SO4) = 2 + 32 + 4 * 16 = 98 g / mol;

m (H2SO4) = 10 * 98 = 980 kg.

Answer: 980 kg.
