A 50.0 mL50.0\,\text{mL} sample of 0.200 M0.200\,\text{M} aqueous calcium nitrate is poured into a beaker containing 75.0 mL75.0\,\text{mL} of 0.150 M0.150\,\text{M} aqueous sodium sulfate at 25 ∘C25\,^{\circ}\text{C}. A solid forms immediately. Assume volumes are additive and temperature change is negligible. (a) Write the balanced molecular equation (include physical states) for the reaction that occurs. (b) Write the corresponding complete ionic equation. (c) Derive the net ionic equation. (d) Determine the limiting reactant and calculate the theoretical mass, in grams, of the solid product formed. Show all work, including unit analysis.
