Sulfuric Acid and Sodium Hydroxide Neutralization
H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O
Visão geral
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.
