which gas is released when sulphuric acid is added to 1 gram of solid sodium chloride taken in test tube and what changes do you observed when you test the gas with dry and wet Litmus Paper what conclusion do you draw by its experiment
Answers
HCl is released
sodium(Na) is high reactive than hydrogen so it displaced it.
similarly the reaction took place .
the formed products are sodium sulphate and hydrochloric acid.
Answer:
NaCl + H2SO4 → HCl + NaHSO4
Explanation:
1. Fumes of HCL release when solid sodium chloride reacts with sulphuric acid.
2. According to the Law of conservation, chloride ions converted into hydrogen chloride molecules. As there are no other compounds on the right side that contains chlorine atoms and of course we can not convert sulphur atoms, so chlorine ions end up converting into hydrogen chloride.
3. When we react dry litmus paper with HCL there will be no reaction, but when we react it with wet litmus paper it will turn red, this is because of the protons and chloride ions that don't dissociate in dry condition but in the wet condition, they dissociate and give red color to litmus paper
