  From  Webster's  Revised  Unabridged  Dictionary  (1913)  [web1913]: 
 
  Sulphacid  \Sulph*ac"id\,  n.  [Sulpho-  +  acid.]  (Chem.) 
  An  acid  in  which  to  a  greater  or  less  extent,  sulphur  plays 
  a  part  analogous  to  that  of  oxygen  in  an  oxyacid;  thus 
  thiosulphuric  and  sulpharsenic  acids  are  sulphacids;  -- 
  called  also  {sulphoacid}.  See  the  Note  under  {Acid},  n.,  2.
