- Hydrochloric Acid + Barium Carbonate → Barium Chloride + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 2HCl + BaCO3 → BaCl2 + CO2 + H2O
- Sulphuric Acid + Barium Carbonate → Barium Sulphate + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- H2SO4 + BaCO3 → BaSO4 + CO2 + H2O
- Nitric Acid + Barium Carbonate → Barium Nitrate + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 2HNO3 + BaCO3 → Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O
