Problem

A laboratory procedure combines Ba(OH)2 (aq)\mathrm{Ba(OH)_2\,(aq)} with H2SO4 (aq)\mathrm{H_2SO_4\,(aq)}, producing a cloudy mixture containing water and insoluble BaSO4\mathrm{BaSO_4}. Explain why this single reaction can be categorized simultaneously as both an acid–base reaction and a precipitation reaction, citing the specific driving force associated with each classification.
