You just heat it. It loses its last water and becomes annhydrous around 120C.

Why sodium carbonate do not decompose?

Sodium carbonate does not decompose at high temperatures because it is a thermally stable compound. The strong chemical bonds between sodium, carbon, and oxygen atoms in sodium carbonate make it resistant to decomposition. Additionally, the decomposition temperature of sodium carbonate is much higher than typical lab conditions.


What alkali's would be found in a chemistry lab?

It depends on the lab, but sodium bicarbonate, borax, sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide (or their potassium equivalents) are popular alkalis with many uses.


Your urine is almost clear and am wondering if a lab will think you dilluted it or will they know its because you drank a lot of water?

clear urine is only a sign that you are hydrated.. cloudy or yellowish only indicates that you are dehydrated.

Will sodium carbonate react with copper II nitrate?

It makes a pale blue precipitate. Look here. I suppose that would be considered a reaction, so Yes, it does react. http://genchem.chem.wisc.edu/lab/CCA/MVHTM/CUSO/CUSONACO.HTM

How would you purify NaCl bought from grocery to lab grade?

Table salt is already a refined salt, being 99% sodium chloride (NaCl). It usually contains substances (for the other 1%) that make it free-flowing (anti-caking agents) such as sodium silicoaluminate or magnesium carbonate. As both magnesium carbonate and sodium silicoaluminate are mostly insoluble in water, it could be possible to dissolve the sodium chloride and filter the insoluble particles. However, the particles will likely be very small and you may benefit more from using a chelating agent to pull the magnesium carbonate or sodium silicoaluminate out of solution before filtering. Both magnesium carbonate and sodium silicoaluminate are generally inert, however, and you may simply find it easier to simply use table salt, depending on he experiments you plan to carry out with the salt.

Explain whether the rinsing of conical flask with the standard sodium carbonate would lead to experimental error?

Rinsing a conical flask with the standard sodium carbonate solution could potentially introduce a systematic error if there was any residue or impurities left in the flask from previous experiments. This could impact the accuracy of the results if any of the residue or impurities interact with the solution being measured. It is best practice to ensure that the flask is thoroughly cleaned and rinsed with the appropriate solvent to avoid such errors.


Why should you not mix sodium and acid in the lab?

Mixing sodium with acid can result in a vigorous chemical reaction, releasing hydrogen gas that can ignite or explode. This reaction can be hazardous due to the release of heat and caustic substances. It is important to follow proper safety protocols and handle these chemicals with care to avoid accidents.
