Question

Give balanced equation of calcium sulphite with dil hcl

Answer 1

Answer:

$\textbf{CaSO_3 + HCl \longrightarrow CaCl_2 + H_2O + SO_2}$

In such a reaction, the acidic property of dilute hydrochloric acid is demonstrated.

• The acidic property states that, when an acid reacts with sulphites or sulphates of metals then sulphur dioxide gas if evolved.
• The acidic property states that, when an acid reacts with sulphites or sulphates of metals then sulphur dioxide gas if evolved. The test of sulphur dioxide gas is as follows:

The test of sulphur dioxide gas is as follows:

(a) It is a colourless gas with a smell similar to that of burning sulphur, which is quite suffocating.

(b) It turns moist litmus paper red.

(c) It turns lime water milky.
