Detailed Information about the Equation:
- The chemical equation above represents the ion exchange reaction between Calcium sulfate (CaSO4) and Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce Sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) and Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2).
- Calcium sulfate and Sodium hydroxide are the reactants, Sodium sulfate and Calcium hydroxide are the products of the reaction.
-
Reaction Conditions:
- This reaction generally occurs in a water solution environment, at room temperature or higher.
- The concentration of the reactants also affects the reaction rate.
-
Reaction Process:
-
Occurring Phenomena:
- When the reaction takes place, the solution will transition from the white color of Calcium sulfate and Sodium hydroxide to the transparent color of Sodium sulfate and Calcium hydroxide.
- If the reaction occurs in a solution, the precipitation of Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) can be observed.
