Write the balanced equation for the reaction of $HCl$ with each of the following.
Calcium sulfite

Open in App

Solution

Chemical properties of $HCl$ :
Reaction of $HCl$ with Calcium sulfite: Hydrochloric acid( $HCl$ ) decomposes salts like calcium sulfite $({CaSO}_{3})$ to Calcium chloride $({CaCl}_{2})$ , Sulfur dioxide $({SO}_{2})$ and Water.
${CaSO}_{3} (s) + 2 HCl (aq) \to {CaCl}_{2} (aq) + {SO}_{2} (g) + H_{2} O (l)$
So decomposition of Calcium sulfite by the reaction with $HCl$ produces Calcium chloride, Sulfur dioxide and Water.
