To test presence of Sodium ions, do a flame test:
color observed: golden yellow.
To test presence of carbonate or hydrogen carbonate ions:
Take some of the sodium hydrogen carbonate in a dry test tube.
Heat the test tube and bubble the gas through limewater.
Limewater turns milky.
Carbonate or hydrogen carbonate ions present.
To distinguish between carbonate and hydrogen carbonate:
Add indicator solution.
If colour of solution turns green, pH is 7-8, hydrogen carbonate ions are present.
If colour of solution turns blue, pH is 12-13, carbonate ions are present.

∙ 6y agoAn aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide will be considerably more alkaline than a solution of the same molarity of sodium acetate. Another way is to add silver nitrate to each. The sodium hydroxide will form a precipitate since silver hydroxide is insoluble. The sodium acetate will not form a precipitate because silver acetate is soluble.
