Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce water (H2O) and sodium sulfate (Na2SO4). In order to react 100 g of sulfuric acid, how many grams of sodium hydroxide are required

Answer 1

first, write the balanced equation. coefficients should be 1,2 --> 2,1

molar mass of H2SO4 is roughly 100. there is a 2:1 mole ratio, so in order for this to happen you need 2 moles of NaOH. 2 moles of NaOH would be (40 x 2)= 80g NaOH
