Sulfuric Acid and Sodium Hydroxide Neutralization

H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O

개요

Sulfuric acid, a diprotic acid, requires two moles of sodium hydroxide for complete neutralization. The reaction produces sodium sulfate (Glauber's salt) and water. Partial neutralization with one mole of NaOH would produce sodium bisulfate (NaHSO₄) instead.
