The chemical formula of sulphuric acid is H2SO4.
Gram molecular weight of H2SO4 = 98 g
Weight of sulphur in one gram molecule of H2SO4 = 32 g
Percentage of sulphur in sulphuric acid = (Weight of sulphur in one gram molecule of sulphuric acid ÷ Weight of one                                                                                gram molecule of sulphuric acid) x 100
                                                               = (32÷98) x 100
                                                               = 32.65 %
