Consider the following chemical equation :2NaOH + H2SO4 \(\longrightarrow\) \(Na_2SO_4 + 2H_2O\)The informations conveyed by this equation are :I. NaOH reacts with H2SO4 to produce \(Na_2SO_4\) and water.II. For every one molecule of H2SO4, two molecules of NaOH are required.III. Acids and bases are non-ionic in nature.IV. This is not a redox reaction.(a) I and II, IV(b) II and III(c) III and IV(d) I and IV

Answer»

Correct answer is (a) I, II and IV

2 NaOH + H2SO4 \(\longrightarrow\) Na2SO4 + 2H2O

(i) According to given chemical equation, we can clearly see that NaOH reacts with H2SO4 to produce Na2SO4 and water

(ii) The given chemical equation is a balance equation. we can clearly see that, one molecule of H2SO4, reacts with 2 molecule of NaOH and produced one molecule of Na2SO4 and two molecule of water (H2O).

(iii) acids and bases are ionic in nature, in equations solution, they decomposed like that -

NaOH \(\overset{H_2O}{\longrightarrow}\) \(Na^{+}(aq) + \overset{\ominus}{OH}(aq)\)

\(H_2SO_4\, \overset{H_2O}{\longrightarrow}\,H_3O^+ +HSO_4{^-}{(aq)}\)

(iv) The given reaction is a example of double displacement reaction, also you can say that it is a neutralization reaction. There is no change in oxidation state of any atoms. that is why it is not a redox reaction.
