Answer
NaCl
Reason — When aqueous barium chloride (BaCl2) reacts with aqueous sodium sulphate (Na2SO4), a double displacement reaction (also called a precipitation reaction) takes place.
In this reaction, barium sulphate (BaSO4), which is insoluble in water, gets precipitated, and sodium chloride (NaCl) remains dissolved in the solution.
The chemical equation is :
BaCl2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) → BaSO4(s)↓ + 2NaCl(aq)
Here:
- BaSO₄ is a white insoluble precipitate, and
- NaCl remains in the aqueous solution.
Hence, the aqueous solution formed is sodium chloride (NaCl).
