What is the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH)?
A. 2H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → 2Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
B. H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
C. H₂SO₄ + NaOH → Na₂SO₄ + H₂O
D. 2H₂SO₄ + NaOH → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
The balanced equation is 2H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → 2Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.
