Na2CO3(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → Na2SO4(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) formula equation

Question

[latex]\underset{ ext{formula equation}}{Na_2CO_3(aq) + H_2SO_4(aq)}→Na_2SO_4(aq) + H_2O(l) + CO_2(g)[/latex]

Accepted Answer

[latex]\underset{ ext{total ionic equation}}{(2 Na^+ + CO^{2-}_3 ) + (2 H^+ + SO^{2-}_4 )}→2 Na^+ + SO^{2-}_4 + H_2O(l) + CO_2(g)[/latex]

[latex]\underset{ ext{net ionic equation}}{CO^{2-}_3 + 2 H^+}→H_2O(l) + CO_2(g)[/latex]

Carbon dioxide [latex](CO_2)[/latex] is a gas and evolves from the solution; [latex]Na^+ and SO^{2-}_4[/latex] are spectator ions.
