Ba(OH)2 + H2SO4 ---> BaSO4 + 2H2O
So one molecule of sulphuric acid will be neutralized by one molecule of barium hydroxide. Or two molecules of sulphuric acid will be neutralized by two molecules of barium hydroxide.
White precipitate will formed which is barium sulfate.
The anhydride of barium hydroxide is barium oxide (BaO). It is formed when barium hydroxide is heated to remove water molecules and only the oxide remains.
Barium sulfate is the precipitate
When barium hydroxide solution is mixed with sulfuric acid, a white precipitate of barium sulfate is formed due to a double displacement reaction. Barium sulfate is insoluble in water and thus forms a solid precipitate. This reaction is used in chemistry labs to test for the presence of sulfate ions.
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is more soluble than barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) in water. This is because potassium hydroxide forms a stronger ion-dipole interaction with water molecules compared to barium hydroxide.
Ba is Barium, OH is Hydroxide and the 8 H2O is Octahydrate. This results in Barium Hydroxide Octahydrate.
Barium hydroxide is not a cation or an anion. It is a compound. It is made of barium ions and hydroxide ions.
Barium hydroxide
No, barium hydroxide is soluble in water. When dissolved in water, it dissociates into barium ions (Ba²⁺) and hydroxide ions (OH⁻).
The precipitate formed when barium chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide is barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2).
Barium hydroxide is a molecular compound.
Barium hydroxide is soluble in water because it forms strong ionic bonds with water molecules. The hydration process stabilizes the ions formed when barium hydroxide dissociates in water, allowing it to dissolve and form a homogeneous solution.
