  • Identifying the Salt Formed from Hydrochloric Acid and Sodium Carbonate
    The salt formed when hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) is sodium chloride (NaCl).

    Here's the balanced chemical equation for the reaction:

    2HCl (aq) + Na₂CO₃ (aq) → 2NaCl (aq) + H₂O (l) + CO₂ (g)

    This reaction produces:

    * Sodium chloride (NaCl), which is common table salt.

    * Water (H₂O).

    * Carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas, which is released as bubbles.
