Question

Study the following reaction carefully. What classification should this reaction have? H2SO4 2NaOH Na2SO4 2H2O synthesis decomposition single replacement neutralization

Answer 1

For any Acid+Alkaline reaction,Neutralization takes place.

Answer 2

Answer: It is a type of neutralization reaction.

Explanation:

Synthesis reaction: In this reaction, two or more simple substances combine directly to form a complex substance.

`A+B\rightarrow AB`

Decomposition reaction: In this reaction, a single compound breaks down into two or more compounds.

`AB\rightarrow A+B`

Single displacement reaction: In this reaction, one element reacts with a compound to produce another element and another compound.

`A+BC\rightarrow AC+B`

Neutralization reaction: In this reaction, acid reacts with base to produce a salt and water molecule.

`HA+BOH\rightarrow AB+H_2O`

For a given reaction,

`H_2SO_4+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O`

`H_2SO_4` is a acid

NaOH is a base

`Na_2SO_4` is a salt

As the given reaction is a type of Neutralization Reaction.
