When HCl reacts with Na2CO3, an acid-base neutralization reaction takes place.
2HCl + Na2CO3 = 2NaCl + H2CO3
H2CO3 further decomposes to give H2O and CO2.

When a solution of hydrogen chloride is added to solid sodium bicarbonate?
When hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium bicarbonate, a salt forms along with carbon dioxide and water. all carbonates react with acid in this way. The equation describing this reaction is: HCl + NaHCO3 → NaCl + H2CO3H2CO3 → CO2 + H2O.
What happens when sodium bicarbonate is added into silver nitrate?
The reaction is:AgNO3 + NaHCO3 = AgHCO3 + NaNO3
What happens when hydrochloric acid is added to sodium hydrogen carbonate?
NaHCO3 + HCl → NaCl + H2CO3
What happens to sodium when added to hydrochloric acid?
NaCl salt is formed and H2 gas is given off
What happens to the indicator when hydrochloric acid is added to sodium hydroxide?
It turns from its original blue colour to red.
Is sodium bicarbonate a product or a reactant?
It depends. If sodium bicarbonate is added to something in a chemical reaction, then it is a reactant in this case. If a chemical reaction forms sodium bicarbonate, then it is a product.
What chemical should be added to neutralize hydrochloric acid?
Add the correct amount of an Alkali, such as Sodium Hydroxide. Use an indicator to find out when it has been neutralized, such as phenolphthalein (however you spell it) or Universal Indicator.
What is added to dilute hydrochloric acid to get sodium chloride?
A base - sodium hydroxide.
What liquid turns pink when Sodium Bicarbonate is added?
phenolphthalein
How does the rate of photosynthesis change when sodium bicarbonate is added to the test tube?
the rate of photosynthesis increases as sodium bicarbonate is added to it as long as you stay proportionate to the amount of water in the test tube.
When sodium metal is added to hydrochloric acid what explosive gas is produced?
Sodium chloride.
When sulphuric acid is added to sodium bicarbonate why does the colour change?
this makes sodium sulphate and CO2
