E CONTENT ANALYSIS

TERM :Diprotic acid,dehydration,hygroscopic,deliquescence
FACTS :Sulphuric acid is one of the most widely used acid
Sulphuric acid was first prepared during middle ages.
Sulphuric acid contains 98% acid and 2% water.It mainly
consist of H
2
SO
4
and very few ions.
Sulphuric acid has many industrial uses




Most of the chemicals manufactured in indusry are used for
the manufacture of other useful product

Sulphuric acid is prepared by the process called contact
process


CONCEPTS :The ability of an acid to leave two proton or tho hydrogen ion is
known as diprotic acid.
The ability of a substance to absorb water from the air is known
as hygroscopic nature.The hygroscopic thayt readily dissolve in
water they absorb is called deliquescence.






The removal of water from a subtance is known as dehydration .
Sulphuric acid is a dehydrating agent.



SUMMARY

Sulphuric acid is a highly corrosive stong mineral acid with the molecular
formula H
2
SO
4.
It is colourless to slightly yellow viscous liquid which is soluble in
water at all concentration.Sulphuric acid is a diprotic acid and show different
properties depending upon its concentration.Sulphuric acid has a wide range
of applications,including domestic acidic drain cleaner ,electrolyte in lead acid
batteries and various cleaning agent .It is also a central substance in the
chemical industry.Principal uses include,
mineral processing,fertilizermanufacturing,oil refining,watste water
processing ,and chemical synthesis.It is widely produced with differnt
methods,such as contact process,wet sulphuric acid process and some other
methods.
Thus the e content can be conveyed very easily and clearly to the student,it
will definitely motivated them to learn.By using the wide scope of e content
we can make the teaching learning process more effectively.
