Sulfuric acid is a component of acid rain formed when gaseous sulfur dioxide pollutant reacts with gaseous oxygen and liquid water to form aqueous sulfuric acid. part a write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. express your answer as a chemical equation. identify all of the phases in your answer.

The chemical reaction is :

Explanation:

When sulfur dioxide gas reacts with oxygen gas and liquid water it gives aqueous solution of sulfuric acid.

This is reason behind the acidic nature of the rain water during acid rain.The chemical reaction is given as:

According to stoichiometry, 2 moles of sulfur dioxide gas reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas and 2 moles of water to give 2 moles of aqueous sulfuric acid.
