Sodium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce sodium chloride, water and carbon dioxide. Which equation has the correct formulae and is balanced?
NaCO3+2HCl→2NaCl+H2O+CO2\text{NaCO}_3 + 2\text{HCl} \rightarrow 2\text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{CO}_2NaCO3+2HCl→2NaCl+H2O+CO2
Na2CO3+2HCl→2NaCl+H2O+CO2\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 + 2\text{HCl} \rightarrow 2\text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{CO}_2Na2CO3+2HCl→2NaCl+H2O+CO2
Na2CO3+HCl→NaCl+H2O+CO2\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 + \text{HCl} \rightarrow \text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{CO}_2Na2CO3+HCl→NaCl+H2O+CO2
Na2CO3+2HCl→2NaCl+H2CO3\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 + 2\text{HCl} \rightarrow 2\text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{CO}_3Na2CO3+2HCl→2NaCl+H2CO3
