Answers
When solutions of barium chloride and sodium sulphate are mixed together, then an insoluble precipitate of barium sulphate and solution of sodium chloride is obtained. Hence, this reaction is a precipitation reaction. The chemical equation for reaction between barium chloride and sodium sulphate is represented as follows
BaCl2 (aq) + Na2SO4 (aq) → BaSO4 (↓) + 2NaCl (aq)
the above reaction is a double displacement reaction since the two compounds exchange their respective ions which results in the formation of two new compounds.
The above reaction will not take place if both the reactants are present in solid state.
Answer:
When barium chloride and sodium sulfate were mixed together, the solution became a cloudy , white liquid with fine grains of precipitate. Barium sulphate precipitate and sodium chloride solution formed is the reaction.
Na2SO4 (aq) + BaCl2 (aq) → BaSO4 (s) + 2NaCl (aq)
