electrolysis of 30% H2SO4

Hi,

electrolysis with platine of H2SO4(30%) 12V 0.7A
let's do this for 48hours with 50mL of 30% H2SO4 (d=1.26, 18,9g(0.2mol) of H2SO4 and 44.1g (3mol H2O)
to simplify let's say that all the H2O will disapear first, then the H2S2O8, and no H2SO5 will be formed
H2O --> H2 + 1/2 O2 at 0.25mol/h 24hours are needed
then 2 H2SO4 --> H2S2O8 + H2 at 0.25mol/h 2hours are needed...
i guees if some H2O2 is formed (H2S2O8 + 2H2O --> 2 H2SO4 + H2O2) it will disapear (H2O2 --> H2 + O2)
and after 30 hours we would get pure H2SO4 by adding good amount of H2O and NaCl...

i try now i'll tell you the results (how many ml obtained, intensity compared to time and problems or not to keep the solution cold, mixing every hour)

ok after 40hours 80% sulfuric acid has been obtained : )

joke I bought some 80% H2SO4 today at the drugstore:
(by the way in every countries in brico stores you can find 75-80% H2SO4 for drain treatment)
so let's try with 20mL of this acid: (density 1.7, 0.28mol of H2SO4, 0.38mol of H2O)
H⁺ + 1e^- --> H₂
so 0.75mol of e^- is needed to convert all the H2O to gaz,
and 2 HSO4^- --> H₂SO₈ + 2e^-, so 0.55mol of e^- is needed to convert all the H2SO4 to H2S2O8...
I've a generator 12V, measured 0.5A = 0.18mol of e^- per hour, I want to transfer 1.3mol of e^- so 7 hours are needed...
