Question
The following is a list of methods for the preparation of salts.
A – direct combination of two elements.
B – reaction of a dilute acid with a metal.
C – reaction of a dilute acid with an insoluble base.
D – titration of a dilute acid with a solution of soluble base.
E – reaction of two solutions of salts to form a precipitate.
Choose from the above list A to E, the best method of preparing the following salt by giving a suitable equation in the following case:
Sodium sulphate.

Solution
The best method of preparing sodium sulphate is the method D – titration of a dilute acid with a solution of soluble base.
\[\ce{Na2CO3 + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + H2O + CO2\uparrow}\]
\[\ce{Na2SO4 + 10H2O -> Na2SO4.10H2O}\]
