The kind of reaction that occurs when you mix aqueous solutions of barium sulfide and sulfuric acid is a precipitation reaction.
<h3>Further Explanation</h3>
- The chemical reaction between Ba(OH)2(aq) and H2SO4(aq) is given by;
Ba(OH)₂(aq) + H₂SO4(aq) --> BaSO₄(aq) + 2H₂O(l)
- This is a type of precipitation reaction, where a precipitate is formed after the reaction, that is Barium sulfate.
<h3>Other types of reaction</h3><h3>Neutralization reactions </h3>
- These are reactions that involve reacting acids and bases or alkali to form salt and water as the only products.
- For example a reaction between sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid.
NaOH(aq) + H₂SO₄(aq) → Na₂SO₄(aq) + H₂O(l)
<h3>Displacement reactions</h3>
- These are reactions in which a more reactive atom or ion displaces a less reactive ion from its salt.
Mg(s) + CuSO₄(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + Cu(s)
<h3>Redox reactions </h3>
- These are reactions that involve both reduction and oxidation occuring simultaneously durin a chemical reaction.
- For example,
Mg(s) + CuSO₄(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + Cu(s)
- Magnesium atom undergoes oxidation while copper ions undergoes reduction.
<h3>Decomposition reactions</h3>
- These are type of reactions that involves breakdown of a compound into its constituents elements.
- For example decomposition of lead nitrate.
Pb(NO3)2(S) → PbO(s) + O2(g) + NO2(g)
