Ex. 8 Read and translate the text How we make sulfuric acid We often use the reaction of sodium metabisulfite with acid in the making of sulfuric acid. This reaction provides a convenient source of sulfur dioxide. It usually prevents the clogging of tubes by the sulfur vapors and soot. We convert sulfur dioxide into sulfuric acid. We do this with the help of its reaction with an oxidizer in water.
Industrially, sulfur dioxide reacts with oxygen over a catalyst to make sulfur trioxide. This is very cheap method of production. People usually use it in industry.
We sometimes use potassium metabisulfite instead of sodium metabisulfite. Chemists use both substances to sterilize winemaking mixtures. We always use the oxidizers because this reaction doesn’t work without them.
