Spectrophotometric measurements up to 270° of aqueous H 2 S solutions, and of strongly alkaline sulphide solutions, were used to evaluate K 1 and K 2 the first and second ionization constants for H 2 S. Values of pK 1 decrease from 7.0 at room temperature to a minimum of 6.6 at 100° and rise again to 7.8 at 270°. pK 2 is shown to be much higher than previous estimates, and almost outside the range of measurement. It is at 25°, >17; at 100°, >16; at 200°, > 12.5; and at 300°, > 12. The hydrolysis of sulphur to H 2 S and H 2 SO 4 was studied to 350° and quantitative data are reported. At high temperatures the stability of sulphur is limited to high acidities and a narrow range of p O 2 values. The relevance of sulphur hydrolysis to the formation of natural high temperature acid hydrothermal systems is pointed out.
