NO! These two chemicals could hardly be more different: Sodium hydroxide is an ionically bonded inorganic salt that contains no carbon, while alkenes are organic compounds that are covalently bonded, contain no sodium or oxygen, and include a carbon-carbon double bond.
The chemical name is Sodium Hydroxide. It is made of Na+ ions and OH- ions.
The symbol for Sodium Hydroxide is NaoH
Sodium hydroxide.
sodium hydroxide is itself a chemical. It can disassociate into a sodium cation and a hydroxide anion
No, sodium hydroxide is a compound.
Sodium hydroxide.
Sodium hydroxide is a base.
When a metal reacts with sodium hydroxide, it produces hydrogen gas and a metal hydroxide. For example, when aluminum reacts with sodium hydroxide, it forms sodium aluminate and hydrogen gas.
Sodium hydroxide is prepared from sodium chloride by the electrolysis of the solution.
Sodium hydroxide is a stronger base than potassium hydroxide. This is because sodium hydroxide has a higher dissociation constant and a higher solubility than potassium hydroxide, making it more effective at accepting protons.
Sodium hydroxide is a compound composed of sodium, a metal, and hydroxide, a polyatomic ion. Therefore, sodium hydroxide is not a metal or a nonmetal but rather an ionic compound.
A hydrocarbon such as an alkane, alkene, or alkyne will NOT react with a hydroxide ion. Simply put, the base is not strong enough to deprotonate these molecules. The resulting anion would Not form,,,,,since a stronger base would be generated. For example, if methane was deprotonated,,,,,we would get the methide anion......This is MUCH MUCH stronger than the OH- ion........a reaction is not favorable when a stronger base is generated. The same logic applies to generation of a base from the alkene or alkyne.
