The chemical equation you provided is incorrect. It violates the law of conservation of atoms. A more reasonable equation could be:
- Detailed explanation of the equation:
This equation describes the reaction between calcium sulfate (CaSO4) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce calcium chloride (CaCl2) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4).
- Conditions for the reaction:
This reaction usually occurs at room temperature and standard pressure. There needs to be enough hydrochloric acid for the reaction to fully occur.
- Reaction process:
CaSO4, a solid, will be dissolved in hydrochloric acid. The result is the creation of calcium chloride, a water-soluble substance, and sulfuric acid.
- Observations:
When calcium sulfate reacts with hydrochloric acid, you will see the initial mixture (solid calcium sulfate and acid solution) gradually turn into a clear solution (calcium chloride solution) with gas being released (sulfuric acid).
