Question

will the aqueous solution of Na2SO4 be acidic basic or neutral

Answer 1

Na2SO4 is in an aqueous solution, that means we can see the products by mixing Na2SO4 together and see what will be the product.
Na2SO4 + 2H2O ==>2NaOH + H2SO4
This the balanced equation for Na2SO4 and water. The product we got was H2SO4 and NaOH. We know that H2SO4 is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base. What happens when strong acid and strong base are combined together?

Answer 2

its made from a strong acid and strong base soI think it will be neutral

Answer 3

its neutral

Answer 4

*mixing Na2SO4 together with water* typo

Yeah, it's a neutral salt

Answer 5

In our chem lab when we put litmus paper in we got the results as the Ph being 9

Answer 6

That's basic

Answer 7

yea...

Answer 8

wait what?

Answer 9

I think we must have messed up

Answer 10

what do you mean?

Answer 11

It could be the amount of solutions you added or something along that, idk what went wrong .-.

Answer 12

wait... for the acid you said it is h2so4 right?

Answer 13

I thought it was simply HSO4 - 1

Answer 14

yes, hence the H as the prefix

Answer 15

The charges of H is +1 and the charges of SO4 is -2
so that means it has to e H2 to become +2 and the compound charges will be balanced out as equaling to zero
