Question

Consider the reaction where barium sulfate can be prepared from 2.76 mol of sodium sulfate and excess barium acetate. Sodium acetate is the other product

1.write the balanced MOLECULAR reaction.
2.write the balanced total ionic equation.
3.write the balanced net ionic equation.

Answer 1

1. Na2SO4(aq)+C4H6BaO4(aq) --> BaSO4(s) + 2C2H3NaO2(aq)

2. 2Na^+1(aq) + SO4^-2(aq) + 4C^+4(aq) + 6H^+1(aq) + Ba^-2(aq) + 4O^-2(aq) --> BaSO4(s) + 2C^-4(aq) + 2H^+1(aq) + 3Na^+1(aq) + 2O^-2(aq)

3. Ba^+2(aq) + SO4^-2(aq) --> BaSO4(s)
