Vitriol oleum

Also known as oil of vitriol, battery acid, oleum ... [Pg.17]

Sulfuric acid (H2S04) wins the prize for being the number one chemical produced worldwide. This acid is a colorless, odorless, thick liquid. The concentrated form of the acid is also called oleum, the Latin word for oil. In fact, it is so thick that it was once called oil of vitriol, a nickname given to the concentrated chemical because of its corrosiveness. [Pg.58]

Manufacture.—The world s annual output of sulphuric aeid is approximately 10 million tons, and this huge amount is supplied almost entirely by the lead chamber and contact processes. The dry distillation of green vitriol as a technical operation has now been abandoned. In Great Britain and Northern Ireland the output for the year 1928 in terms of 100 per cent, sulphuric acid and including oleum was 928,000 tons. ... [Pg.149]

Sulfuric acid (oil of vitriol, H2S04) is a colorless, oily liquid, dense, highly reactive, and miscible with water in all proportions. Heat is evolved when concentrated sulfuric acid is mixed with water and, as a safety precaution, the acid should be poured into the water rather than water poured into the acid. Anhydrous, 100% sulfuric acid, is a colorless, odorless, heavy, oily liquid (boiling point 338°C with decomposition to 98.3% sulfuric acid and sulfur trioxide). Oleum is excess sulfur trioxide dissolved in sulfuric acid. For example, 20% oleum is a 20% sulfur trioxide-80% sulfuric acid mix. Sulfuric acid will dissolve most metals and the concentrated acid oxidizes, dehydrates, or sulfonates most organic compounds, sometimes causing charring. [Pg.497]
