The benzene are sulphonated using acid sufuric.

Please show me how the substitution happened as i really don't see how SO3H can attached to the benzene group and how the SO3H are separated from H2SO4. I really need to understand this substitution..

Thanks

1. Henceforth, please use the homework subforums for questions like these.

2. The actual electrophile here is SO3. Think about that, and see if you can figure it out.
