First off, "Blah", it does matter is the Sulfuric acid is dilute or not.
Dilute Sulfuric acid will react differently than concentrated sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid can act both as a normal acid as well as an oxidizing acid depending on the conditions.
Saying the acid is dilute gives up the clue that it is acting as a normal acid.

The reaction between Sulfuric acid and Sodium Carbonate is as follows,
Na2CO3 + H2SO4 --> Na2SO4 + H2CO3
Then,
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2

This is said in words as,
"Sodium Carbonate reactions with Sulfuric acid to produce Sodium Sulfate and Carbonic acid. The Carbonic acid then goes on to decompose into water and Carbon Dioxide."

Do u mean this ?

Reaction between Sulphuric acid and Sodium Carbonate is as follows,

Na2CO3 + H2SO4 --> Na2SO4 + H2CO3

Sodium Carbonate > Na2CO3
Sulphuric acid > H2SO4

Then,

H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2

This is said in words as,
"Sodium Carbonate reactions with Sulphuric acid to produce Sodium Sulphate and Carbonic acid. The Carbonic acid then goes on to decompose into water and Carbon Dioxide."

though I'm not a chemist i would guess:

Sodium carbonate plus sulphuric acid -> sodium sulphate plus carbon dioxide and water

Sodium carbonate - NaCO3
sulphuric acid - H2SO4
Sodium sulphate - Na2SO4
carbon dioxide - CO2
Water - H2O

sodium carbonate =Na2CO3
sulphuric acid =H2SO4.Dilute sulphuric acid depends on water content.
10%, dilute sulfuric acid for laboratory use (pH 1)
33.5%, battery acid (used in lead-acid batteries) (pH 0.5)
62.18%, chamber or fertilizer acid (pH about 0.4)
77.67%, tower or Glover acid (pH about 0.25)
98%, concentrated (pH about 0.1)

I think it is NaCO3

note that the 3 should be in subscript.

For the sufuric acid, it doesnt matter that it is dilute.
It might be H2S??

NaCO + H2SO4
