Report ©violations ＠https://tips.fbi.gov/ Peroxymonosulfuric acid, , also known as persulfuric acid, peroxysulfuric acid, or Caro՚s acid. In this acid, the S (VI) center adopts its characteristic tetrahedral geometry; the connectivity is indicated by the formula It is one of the strongest oxidants known ( ) and is highly explosive. Is sometimes confused with , known as peroxydisulfuric acid. Disulfuric acid, which appears to be more widely used as its alkali metal salts, has the structure Structures for It is tetrahedral structure. being an inorganic acid only one structure is possible for Like i, sulfur in i molecule is in hybridized state. So, it will adopt tetrahedral structure. Both in and is in + 6 oxidation state. Compare with methane. Put sulfur as central atom. Two apexes of the terahedron will be occupied by two-oxygen atom (double bonded oxygen) . One apex will be occupied by -OH. Remaining will be occupied by peroxy bond (-O-OH) . It contains two double bonded oxygen atoms, which are attached to the Sulphur atom and two -OH groups. Uses in Industry Has been used for a variety of disinfectant and cleaning applications, e. g. , swimming pool treatment and denture cleaning. Alkali metal salts of show promise for the delignification of wood It is also used in laboratories as a last resort in removing organic materials since can fully oxidize any organic materials Ammonium, sodium, and potassium salts of are used in the plastic industry as polymerization initiators, etchants, desizing agents, soil conditioner, and for 3 of 4 9/22/2021 How Many Structures Are Possible for H2SO5: (Peroxymonosulfuric)- FlexiPrep decolorizing and deodorizing oils. Potassium peroxymonosulfate, is the potassium acid salt of peroxymonosulfuric acid. It is widely used as an oxidizing agent. Developed by: Mindsprite Solutions 4 of 4.
