Answer: The chemical formula of the compound formed is [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex]
Explanation:
Acids are defined as the chemical species which donate hydrogen ions when dissolved in water.
[tex]HA(aq.)\rightarrow H^+(aq.)+A^-(aq.)[/tex]
Ionic compound is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from 1 atom to another atom. The cation is formed by the loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
We are given:
An anion having chemical formula [tex]SO_4^{2-}[/tex] named as sulfate ion
This will combine with 2 hydrogen ions to form a neutral compound. The neutral compound formed is sulfuric acid.
Hence, the chemical formula of the compound formed is [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex]
