The chemical reaction is:
2 Na + 2 H2O = 2 NaOH + H2
- Sodium chloride is dissolved and dissociated in water. - Potato can absorb an amount of sodium chloride.
To make a 7.5% solution of sodium carbonate in water, add 7.5 grams of sodium carbonate to 100 mL of water and stir until the sodium carbonate is completely dissolved. This will give you a 7.5% (w/v) solution of sodium carbonate.
To make a 5% water solution of sodium hydroxide, you would mix 5 grams of sodium hydroxide with 95 grams of water. This will give you a total of 100 grams of solution, with 5% of it being sodium hydroxide. Remember to always add the sodium hydroxide to the water slowly and with caution due to its caustic nature.
When sodium bicarbonate is added to water, it dissolves and releases carbon dioxide gas, causing the water to fizz or bubble. This reaction is commonly used in baking as a leavening agent to help dough rise.
Sodium bicarbonate destroys vitamin C. Some bottlers add small amounts of Sodium bicarbonate to soda water, and some do not.
When sodium hydrogen sulfate is added to sodium carbonate, a double displacement reaction occurs. This results in the formation of sodium sulfate and carbonic acid. However, carbonic acid is unstable and breaks down into water and carbon dioxide.
When sodium chloride (table salt) is added to water, it dissociates into sodium ions and chloride ions. These ions interact with the water molecules through a process called solvation, forming a solution of saltwater. The presence of these ions increases the conductivity of the water, making it a better conductor of electricity.
Sodium react with water forming a base - sodium hydroxide - and releasing hydrogen. Add an acid for neutralization.
When you add ammonium (NH4^+) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), it forms ammonia (NH3) gas, water (H2O), and sodium chloride (NaCl) salt through a reaction called neutralization. This reaction can release heat, and can be used to identify the presence of ammonium ions in a solution.
Benzene
you get NaCl, H2, and a great deal of energy
You would need to add Sulphuric acid to make Sodium Sulphate + Water :)
