Answer:
168.0 g
Explanation:
First thing, write a balanced chemical equation:
[tex]H_{2}SO_{4}+ 2NaHCO_{3} ----> Na_{2}SO_{4} + 2H_{2}O+2CO_{2}[/tex]
n(H2SO4) = concentration * volume
= 1.0 M * 2.0 L
= 2.0 mol
According to the balanced equation, 1 mol of acid requires 2 mol of sodium bicarbonate. This means that 2 mol of acid requires 2 mol of sodium bicarbonate. What mass of sodium bicarbonate is this?
mass (NaHCO3) = number of moles * molar mass
= 2.0 mol * 84.0065 g/mol
= 168.0 g
