Question
What is observed when a solution of sodium sulphate is added to a solution of barium chloride taken in a test tube? Write equation for the chemical reaction involved and name the type of reaction in this case.

Solution
When solutions of barium chloride and sodium sulphate are mixed together, then an insoluble precipitate of barium sulphate and solution of sodium chloride is obtained. Hence, this reaction is a precipitation (a kind of double displacement reaction) reaction. The chemical equation for the reaction between barium chloride and sodium sulphate is represented as follows
BaCl2 + Na2SO4 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl
