#Ca(s) + H_2SO_4(aq) \rightarrow CaSO_4(aq) + H_2(g)#

Explanation:

Remember,

Metal + Acid #\rightarrow# Metal Salt + Hydrogen

Therefore the equation would be:

#Ca(s) + H_2SO_4(aq) \rightarrow CaSO_4(aq) + H_2(g)#

Since this equation is a;ready balanced, you don't need to do anything more.

Hope that makes sense!
