Solution

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and sodium chloride (NaCl) to produce hydrogen chloride (HCl) gas and sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) is:

2NaCl + H2SO4 -> 2HCl↑ + Na2SO4

The arrow pointing upwards (↑) after HCl indicates that hydrogen chloride is produced as a gas. The reaction is typically carried out under heat.
