It is a strong base because it is highly soluble in water forming the NaOH and NH3 which further produces NH4OH .

What do you get when NaNH2 is dissolved in an alcohol?
an alcohol reacts with a strong base to from an alkoxide ion
Is NaNH2 ionic or covalent?
it's ionic !
What is an acetylide ion?
A terminal alkyne with a proton missing; reacts as strong base and nucleophile RC(triplebond)C(-) The C- has a lone pair and a formal negative charge You can make one by reacting a terminal alkyne with a strong base such as NaNH2
What is the product when C5H10Br2 reacts with NaNH2 in liquid ammonia?
Pentyne (C5H8)
How do you convert acetylene into ethanol?
sodium amide, then ethyl bromide --> 1-butyne. Add Hg/H2SO4 --> 2butanone
Is NaNh2 a strong base?
Yes
If NaNH2 is dissolved in liquid ammonia is it an acid or a base?
Well ammonia is a weak base and and NaNH2 is a strong base, so overall, you've got a pretty strong base.

Double dehydrohalogenation on an alkane usually requires a very strong base like NaNH2 why is KOH strong enough to do this reaction with stilbene dibromide to obtain diphenylacetylene?
It is possible to make KOH work for the double dehydrohalogenation of an alkane if the base is in a high concentration. If a solvent like triethylene glycol is used, KOH will be less solvated than in solutions of say water, and therefore act as a stronger base.
What is the empirical formula for Sodiumamide?
According to wikipedia, the formula is: 2 Na + 2 NH3 → 2 NaNH2 + H2 I hope I helped! ;)
What is the reaction of methanol with sodamide?
Methanol reacts with sodamide (sodium amide) to produce sdoium methoxide and ammonia. CH3OH + NaNH2 --> NaOCH3 + NH3
How or what does sodium do with or for sodamide?
Sodium is one of the elements in the compound sodamide, which is scientifically called sodium amide (NaNH2). It is formed by reacting sodium metal (Na) with ammonia (NH3).
