Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reaction between barium chloride (BaCl2) and a sulfate source (such as sulfuric acid, H2SO4) produces barium sulfate (BaSO4) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) as products. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: BaCl2 + H2SO4 → BaSO4 + 2HCl. This shows that one mole of barium chloride reacts to produce one mole of barium sulfate, hence if you start with 0.100 mole of barium chloride, you will produce 0.100 mole of barium sulfate.
