Sodium Hydroxide Solution is a a strong Alkali with a pH reading of 13.
alkaline because in NaOH, Na is plus and OH is minus. when hydrogen is plus it is an acid when it is negative it is a base (alkaline)
It is an Alkali
Sodium hydroxide is a base.
Sodium Hydroxide is alkaline.
When placed in water it is alkaline
It is an alkali.
As sodium hydroxide is an alkaline and sulphuric acid is an acid; mixing the two will give a neutral substance. Just like water is neautral with a Ph balance of 7, the solution will then become neutral and balanced. Mixing any two acid and alkali together will give a neutral substance along with water.
Sodium Hydroxide is basic.
Sodium citrate solution is basic.
Adding an acid base indicator to a sodium hydroxide solution can verify that it is an alkaline solution. For example, phenolphthalein turns pink in an NaOH solution.
Add acid and neutralize the solution.

None. Calcium is an element. Acids contain H+ ions, eg, sodium chloride. (NaCl2) Alkalis contain OH- ions, eg, sodium hydroxide. (NaOH)
Adding an acid base indicator to a sodium hydroxide solution can verify that it is an alkaline solution. For example, phenolphthalein turns pink in an NaOH solution.
Add acid and neutralize the solution.
red litmus paper turns blue in sodium hydroxide
acids -> hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulphuric acid alkalis -> sodium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide an acid has a pH of less than 7 an alkali (or base) has a pH of more than 7
It can be either. Two examples would be: Caustic soda (Sodium Hydroxide), which is very alkaline. Caustic potash (Potassium Hydroxide), which is very acidic.
It depends on the type of drain cleaner. Some are acidic (i.e. sulphuric acid based) and some are basic (i.e. sodium hydroxide based), but it would be unlikely that a drain cleaner would have a neutral pH.
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).
Yes. Sodium Hydroxide is a chemical. It is an Alkaline because its pH is 14 which is obviously over 7. Further Detail Still: An Acid will have a pH of under 7 and an Alkaline will have a pH of over 7. A pH scale is how you tell how acidic or alkaline something is by using colours.
