(choose chapter or problem)

Acid precipitation is the term generally used to describe rain or snow that is more acidic than it normally is. One cause of acid precipitation is the formation of sulfuric and nitric acids from various sulfur and nitrogen oxides produced in volcanic eruptions, forest fires, and thunderstorms. In a typical volcanic eruption, for example, 3.50 x 108 kg SO2may be produced. If this amount of SO2were converted to H2SO4 according to the two-step process given below, how many kilograms of H2SO4 would be produced from such an eruption? S02+ 1 O2 S03 S03+ H2O -* H2SO4
