  • Reaction of Sulphuric Acid and Calcium Hydroxide: Products & Equation
    Sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄) reacting with calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) results in a neutralization reaction. This means an acid and a base react to form salt and water.

    Here's the balanced chemical equation:

    H₂SO₄ + Ca(OH)₂ → CaSO₄ + 2H₂O

    Here's what the products are:

    * Calcium sulfate (CaSO₄): This is the salt formed in the reaction. It's a white solid.

    * Water (H₂O): This is the other product, a liquid.

    The reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases heat.
