Question

What type of reaction is naoh+h2so4=na2so4+h2o?

Answer 1

The given reaction is double displacement reaction.

Explanation:

• Balanced displacement reaction is as follows

$2NaOH+H2SO4------Na2SO4+ 2H2O$

• In a double displacement reaction, two compounds react together by an exchange of ions to form two new compounds are called double displacement reactions.

• In such type of reactions, positive ions are exchanged for negative ions.

• A double displacement reaction is generally represented by general equation

$AB + CD -------- AD + BC$

• In double displacement reactions the reaction takes place between ionic compounds.

Answer 2

The following is the balanced double displacement reaction:

2NaOH+H2SO4———>2H2O + Na2SO4

Double displacement reactions are those type of chemical reactions in which one component of each of the reacting molecules is transferred to produce the products. The cations and anions of two different compounds trade positions during this reaction, resulting in the formation of two completely new molecules.

Positive ions are exchanged for negative ions in these processes.

A general equation can be used to express a double displacement reaction.

CD + AB -----> CB + AD

The reaction takes place between ionic chemicals in double displacement reactions.
