You're very welcome! I used toi wonder how soemthing as boand as elemental sulfur could become an acid, until someone told me or I looked it up. then it seemed like magic.

In fact, one pound of pure sulfur (S) would become the equivalent of 3 pounds of 100% sulfuric acid, or 61 pounds of 5% sulfuric acid ... call it 6 gallons of dilute acid from one pound of sulfur powder.

Respect the sulfur- oxidizing bacteria! (e.g. Beggiatoa and Paracoccus).
