#H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) rarr Na_2SO_4(aq) + 2H_2O(l)#

Explanation:

When you write or consider a chemical equation, the two things you must ask yourself are (i) is mass balanced?, and (ii) is charge balanced? If they are not then you know that this does not reflect reality. Are these conditions satisfied here?
