Question

Which of the following is the correct balanced equation for the reaction between H2SO4 and KOH?

H2SO4 + KOH → KSO4 + H2O

H2SO4 + KOH → K2SO4 + H2O

H2SO4 + 2KOH → K2SO4 + 2H2O

H2SO4 + KOH → K2SO4 + 2H2O

Answer 1

What do u think it is ?

Answer 2

I don't have a clue.

Answer 3

This has a bit of theory to do . We have to know that KOH reacts with H2SO4 to give K2SO4 and H2O
Since we know the reaction it's just matter of balancing the equation
There should be same of amount of each element in both reactants and products side . eg: the no. of K atoms in right hand side should be equal to the no of K atoms in the right hand side. Can u give it a try now ?

Answer 4

Third one?

Answer 5

Correct ! :)

Answer 6

Here it was just the matter of balancing the K atoms. But next time when u do this sort of a question make sure that u check if all the atoms are balanced.
