Why does sodium carbonate increase the pH of wash water?
Sodium carbonate is a base. It will react with water in small amounts to produce hydroxide ions, which lowers the concnetration of hydronium ions, thus raising the pH.
Would an aqueous solution of Ammonium Carbonate Contain Ions?
Yes. An aqueous solution of ammonium carbonate would consist of dissociated ammonium ions and carbonate ions.
Does rubidum carbonate compound have ionic bonds?
Yes, the bonds between rubidium ions and carbonate ions in rubidium carbonate are ionic bonds.
In the compound iron II carbonate the ratio of iron II ions to carbonate ions will be?
One to one
What compound will be formed between copper ion and carbonate ion?
Copper and carbonate ions form copper carbonate. In practice, copper carbonate usually contains hydroxide ions as well.
Why does sodium carbonate increase the pH of wash water?
Sodium carbonate is a base. It will react with water in small amounts to produce hydroxide ions, which lowers the concnetration of hydronium ions, thus raising the pH.
What is the name of the formula CaCO3?
The name of the chemical formula CaCO3 is calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is commonly found in rocks and is created when ions in hard water react with carbonate ions to create limescale. The hardness of water is measures in ppm CaCO3.
Why it is not blown in a pippete when a base remains in it?
when you blown in a pippete, the base will react with carbon dioxide to form carbonate.
Why is it preferable to react sodium bicarbonate with a base and not with an acid to determine the percentage hydrogen carbonate?
Hydrogen carbonate will eliminated away as a gas
Why sodium carbonate being a salt acts as an alkali metal?
It is not an alkali metal, but it is alkaline. The carbonate ion is a weak base; it reacts with water in small amounts to form bicarbonate ions and hydroxide ions.
What do the H plus ions of an acid and the OH-ions of base form when they react?
hydrogen gas i believe or oxygen
Why would it be unlikely for a solid material to be made of pure carbonate ions?
Carbonate ions have a negative charge, and they therefore repel other carbonate ions (like charges repel, as described by Coulomb's Law). You can only have a group of carbonate ions in a material if that material also contains positively charged ions which will attract the negatively charged carbonate ions. Calcium carbonate is an example of such a material.
What is the gas produced when a base is mixed with carbonate?
Those two kinds of compounds do NOT react at all.
Would an aqueous solution of Ammonium Carbonate Contain Ions?
Yes. An aqueous solution of ammonium carbonate would consist of dissociated ammonium ions and carbonate ions.
What kinds of ions do bases have in water?
Bases react with H2O to a base ion+ and OH-.
Does limestone react to acid?
No. It is a sedimentary rock. However, unlike sandstone which is also a sedimentary rock, it is primarily composed of calcium carbonate which can be eaten away by acid (like acid rain) gradually with time.
Does rubidum carbonate compound have ionic bonds?
Yes, the bonds between rubidium ions and carbonate ions in rubidium carbonate are ionic bonds.
