Write a balanced equation and the net ionic equation for when aqueous sodium chloride is added to aqueous sulfuric acid, (H2SO4). Hydrogen chloride gas, (HCl) and aqueous sodium sulfate are produced. Please explain step by step and show all charges
Step 1
In first step when sodium chloride and sulfuric acid is feeded into water then their ions break up sulfuric acid break into sulphate and hydronium and NACI breaks in sodium and chloride ions
Step 2
Now Sodium posses +ve charge and sulfate -ve charge the come in contact and form ionic molecule Sodium sulfate.
Step 3
And hydrogen has +ve charge and chloride is -ve the both comes in contact and creates a covalent gas called hydrochloric gas which evolved during reaction.
