Sulfuric acid for preparing other acids and it leads to
production of many compounds & hydrochloric acid for cleaning
purposes and used where it can replaces sulfuric acid as it is
less corrosive and cheaper than sulfuric acid. Nitric acid is
also a very useful acid widely used too but not in all
industries as it behaves quite differently comparing these two
and also it is a very strong oxidizing agent.

Yep, also, I would call Sodium hydroxide as the Queen of
chemicals as it is almost equally used as Sulfuric acid hahhaha.
