Hello!
When finding the chemical formula of a compound, we will need to find the charges of each element/bond.
Looking at our period table, sodium has a +1 charge, written as Na 1+, and sulfate has a charge of -2, and it is written as SO4 2-.
Now, we need to make the charges equivalent. To do this, we need to "criss-cross" the charges. This means that sodium will need to additional atoms to make the charges equal, and sulfate will need one.
Therefore, the chemical formula for sodium sulfate is: Na2SO4.
BaSO₄ is relatively harmless, but BaS is highly toxic.
BaSO₄ is quite insoluble (240 µg/100 mL). It is a <em>mild irritant</em> in cases of skin contact and inhalation. However, it is <em>safe enough</em> that health professionals ask patients to drink a suspension of BaSO₄. The Ba is opaque to X-rays, so it makes the stomach and intestines more visible to radiographers.
BaS is soluble (7.7 g/100 mL). It reacts slowly with water and more rapidly in the acid conditions of the stomach to <em>release H₂S</em>.
BaS + 2HCl ⟶ BaCl₂ + H₂S
An H₂S concentration of 60 mg/100 mL can be <em>fatal within 30 min</em>.

Answer:
+1.03 V
Explanation:
The standard emf of the voltaic cell is the value of the standard potential of it, which is calculated by the standard reduction potential (E°).
The standard reduction potential is the potential needed for the reduction reaction happen, and it's determined by the reaction with the hydrogen cell (which has E° = 0.0V). The half-reactions of reduction of Ni⁺² and Ag⁺, are:
Ni⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ → Ni(s) E° = -0.23 V
Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ → Ag(s) E° = +0.80 V
The value is calculated by a spontaneous reaction, in which the cell with the greater E° is reduced (gain electrons), and the other is oxidized (loses electrons). So, Ag⁺ reduces.
emf = E°reduces - E°oxides
emf = 0.80 - (-0.23)
emf = +1.03 V
