do seas also have hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide
Hydroxide is a Bronsted-Lowry base, meaning that it accepts protons from other substances. When sodium hydroxide ionizes, it forms the following: NaOH + H2O --> Na+ + OH- In the Arrehnius definiton, it increases the amount of hydroxide. In this case, sodium hydroxide does so. Also, when measuring pH, NaOH gives an alkaline reading, meaning that the pH is above 7. This is due to the decrease of hydronium and the increase of hydroxide. Sodium Hydroxide is not in Acetic Acid. Acetic Acid is CH3COOH (also known as HC2H3O2).
No, it is basic, but is just as dangerous as a strong acid.
sodium + hydrochloric acid → sodium chloride + hydrogen. 2Na(s) + 2HCl(aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + H2(g) Hydrogen gas produced catches fire. The reaction is very exothermic. Metallic sodium reacts violently with water. Use a safety screen if you decide to see what happens with acid. Use small pieces of sodium and a wide mouthed reacting vessel ie a beaker rather than a test tube.
Yep, because....Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), also known as caustic soda, is a caustic metallic base. Pure sodium hydroxide is a white solid available in pellets, flakes, granules, and as a 50% saturated solution. It is hygroscopic and readily absorbs carbon dioxide from the air. Sodium hydroxide is neutralized with hydrochloric acid to produce the soluble salt sodium chloride in solution. This solution is then concentrated and crystallized to produce sodium chloride crystals.Sodium hydroxide is predominantly ionic, containing sodium cations and hydroxide anions. The hydroxide anion makes sodium hydroxide a strong base which reacts with acids to form water and the corresponding salts. Sodium hydroxide reacts with protic acids to give water and the corresponding salts. This type of reaction with a strong acid releases heat, and hence is referred to as exothermic. Such acid-base reactions can also be used for titrations. However, sodium hydroxide is not used as a primary standard because it is hygroscopic and absorbs carbon dioxide from air.
Calcium hydroxide and nitric acid yield calcium nitrate and water. Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 --> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O
Sodium hydroxide + Hydrochloric acid ----> Sodium chloride + Water It is a neutralization reaction and is also exothermic. Products are Sodium chloride and water.
Hydrochloric acid: yellow color Sodium hydroxide: brown color Sugar: unchanged
Any acid can be used to neutralize a base such as sodium hydroxide. If you have a concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide, you could neutralize it most efficiently with a strong acid such as hydrochloric acid. You can also neutralize it with Coca Cola, or vinegar, or many other acidic chemicals, but it would require a larger amount than if you used hydrochloric acid.
I was stunned when I noticed sodium hydroxide in a body lotion that I use, but was relieved to an find that the product is safe. According to Milton B at yahoo answers : "You will also notice that it contains hydrochloric acid. The sodium hydroxide/hydrochloric acid are used to adjust the pH of the the final product to a slightly acid level that is compatible with normal skin pH."
An acid is made acidic by a high concentration of positively charged hydrogen ions, and a base made basic by a high concentration of negatively charged hydroxide ions. When hydrochloric acid is mixed with sodium hydroxide, the hydrogen from the acid combines with the oxygen and hydrogen from base creating H2O (water). The leftover ions from the acid and base combine to from a salt, in this case, table salt (NaCl).
if table salt means sodium chloride then it may form from hydrochloric acid by reacting with sodium hydroxide, but table salt is not pure sodium chloride it also contains a small quantity of magnesium and calcium chloride.
Also the concentration of HCl and NaOH are needed to be known (not only the amounts) to answer this question.

The main acid in the stomach to aid in digestion is hydrchloridic acid. Several enzymes are also released.
