Question

Balanced chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and oxalic acid

Answer 1

Answer:

(COOH)2 + 2 NaHCO3 --> (COONa)2 + 2 CO2 + 2H2O

Answer 2

Answer:

The balanced chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and oxalic acid is

$\[{H_2}{C_2}{O_4} + NaHC{O_3} \to C{O_2} + {H_2}O + N{a_2}{C_2}{O_4}\]$

Explanation:

A neutralization reaction is a reaction in which an acid reacts with a base and gives carbon dioxide, water, and salt. In a neutralization reaction acid and base react with each to nullify the effect o each other.

In the given question sodium bicarbonate is a weak base and oxalic acid is a weak acid. Both react with each other to give carbon dioxide, water, and sodium carbonate.

$\[{H_2}{C_2}{O_4} + NaHC{O_3} \to C{O_2} + {H_2}O + N{a_2}{C_2}{O_4}\]$
