    Hmm, sulphate can be written as sulfate, to be more precise, it is now better to write is as sulfate if you are using the IUPAC system. Things have changed, dear.

    If you want to be sure, have a look here:

    In inorganic chemistry, a sulfate (IUPAC-recommended spelling; also sulphate in British English) is a salt of sulfuric acid.

    That's true -- except that potassium bisulfate is not used as a preservative whereas potassium bisulfite is used as a preservative. The questioner may have mis-read his notes.
