Expert Solution
Step 1

Hydrochloric acid is a stronger acid than sulfurous acid and it replaces the anion when HCl reacts with the salt of sulfurous acid. The balanced chemical reaction is given below:

Chemistry homework question answer, step 1, image 1

The stoichiometry of the balanced chemical reaction states that two moles of HCl react with one mole of sodium sulfate to form one mole of sulfurous acid and two moles of sodium chloride.

Step 2

The ionic equation for the above reaction is given by:
