A gas mixture consisting of 65% N₂ and 35% SO, by volume is admitted to an absorption column at a rate of 4500 kg/h. It is contacted with a stream of 50% H₂SO, flowing counter-current to the gas stream at a rate of 5000 kg/h. The gases leave at 101.3 kPa. Water lost with the exit gases exerts a partial pressure of 25.00 kPa. If the concentrated acid leaving the bottom of the column contained 75.00% H₂SO, what percent of the entering SO is absorbed and converted to acid?
