Sulfuric acid, H2SO4, is somewhat unique in that it is a diprotic acid but it is also a strong acid. Thefirst dissociation of H2SO4 is as a strong acid, and is thus a complete dissociation. However, thesecond dissociation of H2SO4 is as a weak acid. Unlike with other polyprotic acids, you cannotneglect the second dissociation of H2SO4 because it will impact the pH of the solution.

Hydrofluoric acid (HF) can be manufactured by treating calcium fluoride (CaF2) with sulfuric acid (H2SO4). A sample of fluorospar (the raw material) contains 75% by weight CaF2 and 25% inert (nonreacting) materials. The pure sulfuric acid used in the process is in 30% excess of that theoretically required. Most of the manufactured HF leaves the reaction chamber as a gas, but a solid cake is also removed from the reaction chamber that contains 5% of all the HF formed, plus...
