How to show the balanced chemical reaction based on this?

Question

Unravel the titer value of 1 N H₂SO₄ and KHCO₃

1 equivalent H₂SO₄ = ____ equivalent of KHCO₃ = _____ grams of KHCO₃. Each mL of 1N H₂SO₄ is equivalent to _____ mg of KHCO₃

Answer 1

So Tyl O.,

If I had to guess (you leave me no choice; you could have provided a bit more background!) I'd guess that you are titrating KHCO₃ with H₂SO₄ . Both protons on the latter can acidify the former (HSO₄ (-) is a moderately strong weak acid), so 1 molecule of the latter is "equivalent" to two molecules of the former. I think you can take it from there, converting back and forth to concentrations, and masses? (The reaction liberates H₂CO₃ = CO₂).
