Sodium carbonate (also known as washing soda, soda crystals or soda ash), Na2CO3, is a sodium salt of carbonic acid. It most commonly occurs as a crystalline heptahydrate, which readily effloresces to form a white powder, the monohydrate; and is domestically well known for its everyday use as a water softener. It has a cooling alkaline taste, and can be extracted from the ashes of many plants. It is synthetically produced in large quantities from table salt in a process known as the Solvay process.

Sodium carbonate is a white, crystalline and hygroscopic powder with a purity of > 98 %. There are
two forms of sodium carbonate available, light soda and dense soda. Impurities of sodium carbonate
may include water (< 1.5 %), sodium chloride (< 0.5 %), sulphate (< 0.1 %), calcium (< 0.1 %),
magnesium (< 0.1 %) and iron (< 0.004 %). The purity and the impurity profile depends on the
composition of the raw materials, the production process and the intended use of the product. For
example the purity of the pharmaceutical grade must be higher than 99.5 % in Europe
(Pharmacopée Européenne, 1996).

No. Sodium carbonate is Na2CO3. Sodium bicarbonate is NaHCO3. Sodium carbonate is a stronger base.
Na2CO3 is commonly known as Sodium Carbonate.
No Sodium carbonate is Na2CO3 while sodium bicarbonate is NaHCO3 Sodium carbonate is a stronger base.
Sodium carbonate is Na2CO3(the more familiar compound, baking soda, is sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3)
Unlike sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate will be dissociated while heating.
sodium carbonate Formula-Na2Co3
Yes. Sodium carbonate is a compound.
Sodium Carbonate is a base.
