Sulphuric acid was probably discovered by alchemists in the thirteenth century. ... In 1740 the first large-scale sulphuric acid plant was built, using the nitre method. At first large glass containers were used, but in 1746 a new plant was built using lead-lined chambers.  The process became known as the lead...

Sulfuric acid (British English: sulphuric acid), H2SO4, is a strong mineral acid. It is soluble in water at all concentrations. The old name for sulfuric acid was oil of vitriol. Sulfuric acid has many applications, and is produced in larger amounts than any other chemical besides water. ... History of sulfuric acid...

The post war period (1940-1965) saw the greatest economic growth in America's history, and this was reflected in ever increasing sulfuric acid production. Massive inflation during the late sixties and the energy crisis and economic recession of the early seventies also reveal themselves in the sulfuric acid curve.

There are two major processes (lead chamber and contact) for production of sulphuric acid, It serves as the electrolyte in the lead-acid storage battery commonly used in motor vehicles (acid for this use, containing about 33% H2SO4 and with specific gravity about 1.25, is often called battery acid).

Sulphur atoms fall near the middle of the scale: they are heavier than silicon but lighter than iron. Every atom of sulphur has 16 protons and 16 neutrons. Like silicon and iron, all atoms of sulphur are made inside stars that are getting older and have used up most of their fuel but have not yet ... History of Science...
