The equation shows a neutralization reaction. cap h sub 2 SO sub 4 plus 2 NaOH long right arrow NaSO sub 4 plus 2 cap h sub 2 cap o What is Na sub 2 SO sub 4 ?

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in a neutralization reaction to form water and an ionic compound, sodium sulfate (Na₂SO₄). The product formed from the positive ion of a base and the negative ion of an acid is a salt, so Na₂SO₄ is a salt.
