Answers

Thermoacidophiles are chemosynthetic bacteria. They often live in hot sulphur springs where the temperature may be as high as 80∘C and pH as low as 2. They obtain energy for synthesis of food from oxidising sulphur. They oxidise sulphur to sulphuric acid under aerobic conditions. 2S + H2SO4 +3O2 →2H2SO4
