Question
Addition of sulfurous acid (a weak acid) to barium hydroxide (a strong base) results in the formation of a precipitate. The net ionic equation for this reaction is
A.
2 H+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) → 2 H2O(l)
B.✓ Correct
H2SO3(aq) + Ba2+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) → BaSO3(s) + 2 H2O(l)
C.
2 H+(aq) + SO3 2-(aq) + Ba2+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) → BaSO3(s) + 2 H2O(l)
D.
H2SO3(aq) + Ba2+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) → Ba2+(aq) + SO3 2-(aq) + 2 H2O(l)
E.
H2SO3(aq) + Ba(OH)2(aq) → BaSO3(s) + 2 H2O(l)
