Question

sodium nitrate + sulphuric acid -----> sodium sulphate + nitric acid write formula and then balance it

Open in App

Solution

Reaction is
NaNO₃ + H₂SO₄-----> Na₂SO₄ + HNO₃
Balancing of the reaction:
There are 2 sodium atoms on the right side so multiply NaNO₃ by 2 for getting equal number of sodium atoms.
Reaction becomes:
2 NaNO₃ + H₂SO₄-----> Na₂SO₄ + HNO₃
For getting equal numbers of NO₃ groups on both the sides multiply HNO₃by 2.
Now the reaction will become
2 NaNO₃ + H₂SO₄-----> Na₂SO₄ +2HNO₃ which is the balanced equation.
