Sulfuric Acid Formation: Understanding the Reaction of Sulfur Trioxide and Water

The product of the reaction between sulfur trioxide (SO₃) and water vapor (H₂O) in the atmosphere is sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).

This reaction is a well-known and significant contributor to acid rain:

SO₃(g) + H₂O(g) → H₂SO₄(aq)
