Question

How many types of salts does dibasic acid produce when it reacts with caustic soda solution? Give equation(s)

Answer 1

Two types of salts are produced when dibasic acid reacts with caustic soda. One is acidic salt and other normal salt.

Acid salts:
H₂SO₄ + NaOH ⟶ NaHSO₄ + H₂O

Normal salts:
H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH ⟶ Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
