Question

What is the salt produced when sulfuric acid (H2SO4) reacts with potassium hydroxide (KOH)?

a)SO4K
b) K2SO4


c)KSO 4
d)H2O

Answer 1

I got B. Because the answer is K2SO4, I got it right on my test so I know its right

Answer 2

Neutralization is a double displacement reaction, with the condition that one product must be water and the other ionic product is a salt.

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

2KOH + H2SO4 = K2SO4 + 2H2O

So the answer would be letter b., K2SO4.
