Clustering reactions

(HO₄S^- • ) +  = (HO₄S^- • 2)

By formula: (HO₄S^- • H₂O₄S) + H₂O₄S = (HO₄S^- • 2H₂O₄S)

Free energy of reaction

(HO₄S^- • 2) +  = (HO₄S^- • 3)

By formula: (HO₄S^- • 2H₂O₄S) + H₂O₄S = (HO₄S^- • 3H₂O₄S)

Free energy of reaction

(HO₄S^- • 3) +  = (HO₄S^- • 4)

By formula: (HO₄S^- • 3H₂O₄S) + H₂O₄S = (HO₄S^- • 4H₂O₄S)

Free energy of reaction

(HO₄S^- • 4) +  = (HO₄S^- • 5)

By formula: (HO₄S^- • 4H₂O₄S) + H₂O₄S = (HO₄S^- • 5H₂O₄S)
