Hydrolysis of 1 mol of peroxodisulphuric acid produces:
- 2 mol of sulphuric acid.
- 2 mol of peroxomono sulphuric acid.
- 1 mol of sulphuric acid and 1 mol of peroxomono sulphuric acid.
- 1 mol of sulphuric acid, 1 mol of peroxomono sulphuric acid, and 1 mol of hydrogen peroxide.
Correct answer: 2 mol of sulphuric acid.
Solution
Peroxodisulphuric acid (H2S2O8) hydrolyzes by breaking the O–O peroxide linkage, and both sulfur centers end up as sulfate-type acid units. The net result is formation of 2 moles of sulphuric acid per mole of peroxodisulphuric acid.
