It was used in the first step of an obsolete process to transform sodium chloride to hydrogen, chlorine gas, and sodium carbonate, the Leblanc process. It was originally created with the use of Glover towers; though now produced by the [*] contact process, that method was known as the lead chamber process. Its pure form was formally known as oil of vitriol and, along with carbon dioxide and water, it is a main component of Venus' atmosphere. For 10 points, name this strong component of acid rain with formula H2SO4.
