प्रश्न
Distinguish by a chemical test, Sodium carbonate and sodium sulphite.
उत्तर
Sodium chloride reacts with H2SO4 to produce HCl gas, while sodium sulphite reacts with H2SO4 to produce sulphur dioxide gas.
\[\ce{Na2CO3 + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + H2O + CO2}\]
Sodium sulphite when added to a dilute solution. Sulphuric acid releases a colourless gas with a burning sulphur odour and changes acidified potassium dichromate paper from orange to green.
\[\ce{Na2SO3 + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + H2O + SO2}\]
\[\ce{\underset{(Orange)}{K2Cr2O7} + 3SO2 + H2SO4 -> K2SO4 + \underset{(Green)}{Cr2(SO4)3} + H2O}\]

The Salt Story
From: The New Indian Express 9 March 2021
The salt pans in Marakkanam, a port town about 120 km from Chennai are the third largest producer of salt in Tamil Nadu. Separation of salt from water is a laborious process and the salt obtained is used as raw materials for manufacture of various sodium compounds.
One such compound is Sodium hydrogen carbonate, used in baking, as an antacid and in soda acid fire extinguishers.
The table shows the mass of various compounds obtained when 1litre of sea water is evaporated.
| COMPOUND | FORMULA | MASS OF SOLID PRESENT /g |
| Sodium Chloride | NaCl | 28.0 |
| Magnesium Chloride | MgCl2 | 8.0 |
| Magnesium Sulphate | MgSO4 | 6.0 |
| Calcium Sulphate | CaSO4 | 2.0 |
| Calcium Carbonate | CaCO3 | 1.0 |
| TOTAL AMOUNT OF SALT OBTAINED | 45.0 | |
How many grams of Magnesium Sulphate are present in 135g of solid left by evaporation of sea water?
The acid reacts with a base to form a neutral product called ______.
