Haha thanks a lot no wonder I couldnt balance it. But cant you simplify the Na2SO4 to NaSO2?

sodium sulfate is Na2SO4, sodium chloride is NaCl not NaClO
BaCl2 + Na2SO4 ---> 2 NaCl + BaSO4

really straight forward double replacement. PS I'm guessing you screwed up the NaCLO part because NaCl is sodium chloride
Ok dont' have my period table memoried but look:
Cl is a single negative ion, so Ba must be a double positive ion, but you can check your own table ref.
Na is a single positive ion.
Na2SO4 - it you forget about SO4, just remember H2SO4 is commonly sulfuric acid so SO4 is a -2 ion
now you have BaCl2 + Na2SO4 -------------> NaCl + BaSO4
but on the right, not enought na and cl
BaCl2 + Na2SO4 -------------> 2Na+ + 2Cl- + BaSO4
NaCl isn't a solid precip in aquauous solutions.
