No. Sodium hydroxide releases hydroxide ions, which actually take protons out of the solution.
This qualifies sodium hydroxide as a base.
When sodium oxide is added to water, it reacts to form sodium hydroxide as a product. This is because sodium oxide is a basic oxide that reacts with water to produce a strong base, sodium hydroxide, along with the release of heat. This reaction is exothermic and can be used in industries for the production of sodium hydroxide.
The salt formed when sodium hydroxide is added to nitric acid is sodium nitrate (NaNO3).
When sodium hydroxide solution is added to ammonium hydroxide, a double displacement reaction occurs. Ammonium hydroxide is a weak base and sodium hydroxide is a strong base. The reaction produces water, sodium hydroxide, and ammonia gas.
Metallic copper does not react with sodium hydroxide. But if sodium hydroxide is added into a solution of copper ions, it would form Copper(II) Hydroxide. It is a precipitate which is insoluble in water.
A base - sodium hydroxide.

Yes, glycerin can be used to dissolve sodium hydroxide. When sodium hydroxide is added to glycerin, it will dissolve and form a clear viscous solution. It is important to handle sodium hydroxide carefully as it is a caustic substance.
Carbon dioxide dissolves in the aqueous solution to produce carbonic acid. The carbonic acid dissociates to produce the carbonate ion and two protons. The protons reacts with the hydroxide provided by the already dissociated sodium hydroxide to produce water. The sodium carbonate is fairly soluble and stays in solution. Since the hydroxide ion is depleted, the phenolphthalein reverts from pink to clear as it does in solutions with a pH less than 8.3.
Substances that produce OH- ions when added to water are known as bases, or alkaline substances. Common examples include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH), which dissociate in water to release hydroxide ions. These hydroxide ions then react with water molecules to form hydroxide ions (OH-) and hydronium ions (H3O+), leading to the characteristic alkaline properties of bases.
The chemical equation when sodium hydroxide is added to iron(II) is: Fe(OH)2 (iron(II) hydroxide) + 2NaOH (sodium hydroxide) -> Fe(OH)2 + 2NaOH.
When copper carbonate is added to sodium hydroxide, a chemical reaction occurs to form copper hydroxide and sodium carbonate. Copper hydroxide is a blue solid precipitate, while sodium carbonate remains as a soluble compound in the solution.
