In the preparation of $H_2SO_4$ by the Contact Process,why is $SO_3$ not absorbed directly in water to form $H_2SO_4$?
(N/A) If $SO_3$ is absorbed directly in water,a large amount of heat is released,which leads to the formation of an acid fog.
This acid fog is extremely difficult to condense,making the process inefficient and hazardous.
