Solution
The correct option is C2,2
Atoms
Left-hand side
Right-hand side
Na

O
x+4
y+4
H
x+2
2×y
For the reaction: xNaOH+H2SO4→Na2SO4+yH2O Balance number of atoms on both sides of the reaction: x=2 therefore from above relations we get x=y=2 balanced reaction is: 2NaOH+H2SO4→Na2SO4+2H2O Option B is correct.
