Which salt is produced when sulfuric acid and calcium hydroxide react completely?
(1) CaH2 (3) CaS
(2) CaO (4) CaSO4


Sagot :

CaSO4 is produced when sulfuric acid and calcium hydroxide react completely.

Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When sulfuric acid reacts with calcium hydroxide then it results in the formation of calcium sulfate and water.

The chemical reaction for the same will be as follows.

     [tex]H_{2}SO_{4} + Ca(OH)_{2} \rightarrow CaSO_{4} + 2H_{2}O[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that [tex]CaSO_{4}[/tex] salt is produced when sulfuric acid and calcium hydroxide react completely.
