Experiment I did this experiment. I am not sure about my equation, however, if I am correct, there is a little something that caught my eye.
NaCl + H2SO4 --> NaSO4 + H2Cl*
*What is this? | |

P-Man's alright...sorry P-Man for interupting the flow. I only know enough chemistry to know either you are asking what compound is H2Cl literally, or that finding H2Cl as a solution to the equation somehow surprises you. If you press me further, I can further illuminate my ignorance.  That is all.

Re: Experiment Are you trying to make Chlorine Gas??
What exactly are you wanting to do P-man?
my chemistry is rusty...
haha, get it, rusty - oxidation...
Let see if I have time to go looking through my old notes.
I really do wish I would have kept my Chemistry Book from college.

*What is this? | I'm not sure how the reaction would go but;
Na2SO4 is sodium sulphate, and HCL is hydrochloric acid
If you look at your reaction, NaSO4 + H2CL cannot be accurate.............Infy

*What is this? | The problem is your equation has not be properly balanced! it should look more like:
2NaCl + H2SO4 --> Na2SO4 + 2HCl

Re: Experiment So NaSO4 is not a compound? What about H2Cl?
Anyways, if I made HCl, then it would have been formed in a gaseous form, right? Then it would have floated away on the wind...
Sodium sulphate... what may I do with that, exactly?
Oh, and I have found a new balance to the equation:
NaCl + H2SO4 --> NaHSO4 + HCl
Which still produces HCl but also a compound that I have temporarily named Sodium Hydrosulphate. | |

| No, it would have all stayed in an aqueous form - that is dissolved in the water. Quote:

| there are many balances to the equation, yes they add up but that doesnt mean it can happen in the real world - maybe under some wacky conditions.. but under normal conditions you may only create a very small amount of it. Its sort of like probability, the most probable outcome of these two chems been mixed is the equation I wrote up, but there are other possibilities these will occur but on a very small scale.

Re: Experiment So you are saying under normal conditions the equation you wrote up is what would happen? So I made Na2SO4 not NaHSO4? | | |
