    When \[PC{{l}_{5}}\]reacts with sulphuric acid, sulphuryl chloride \[(S{{O}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}})\] is formed as the final product. This shows that sulphuric acid:

    A)  has two hydroxyl groups in its structure

    B)  is a derivative of sulphur dioxide

    C)  is a dibasic acid

    D)  has greater affinity for water

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[PC{{l}_{5}}+HO-\underset{O}{\mathop{\underset{||}{\mathop{\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{S}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-OH\xrightarrow{{}}\]\[Cl-\underset{O}{\mathop{\underset{||}{\mathop{\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{S}}\,}}\,}}\,}}\,-Cl+POC{{l}_{3}}+{{H}_{2}}O\]\[PC{{l}_{5}}\] attacks \[-OH\] group and replace it by \[-Cl\] group. Hence, reaction of \[PC{{l}_{5}}\] with \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] shows the presence of \[2-OH\] groups in \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\].
