NaHCO₃ + HCl → NaCl + H₂O + CO₂
<u>Explanation:</u>
NaHCO₃ + HCl → NaCl + H₂O + CO₂
When Sodium bi carbonate (NaHCO₃) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl), it forms table salt (NaCl), water ( H₂O ) and Carbon di oxide (CO₂) gas is evolved.
Here base reacts with acid to form salt and it is the neutralization reaction.
To be at equilibrium means the rate of the forward reaction must equal the rate of the reverse reaction. This does not mean that there should be an equal amount of both products and reactants when at equilibrium. It simply means the RATES of the forward and the reverse are equal to one another.
I would use the following steps:
- Write the <em>balanced chemical equation</em> for the reaction.
- Use the molar mass to <em>convert the mass of the reactant to moles</em>.
- Use the molar ratio of product:reactant from the balanced chemical equation to <em>convert moles of reactant to moles of product</em>.
- Use the molar mass of the product to <em>convert moles of product to mass of product</em>.
You can use the diagram below to remind you of the importance of the <em>molar ratio</em> in mass-mass conversions
You must get over the mole “hill” to make the conversion.
