What is the reaction if sodium bicarbonate or a few drops of ammonia or calamine lotion is applied to an infected area?

None of these should "react" much with human skin, but the ammonia at least is a very bad idea; it's caustic enough to cause chemical burns.

What is the reaction between sodium bicarbonate and ammonia?
reaction between acetanilide and sodium bicarbonate
What can you substitute for ammonia-bicarbonate?
A substitute for ammonia-bicarbonate would be baking powder. Ammonia-bicarbonate is used with or without yeast in the baking industry to make dough rise.
What is ammonia bicarbonate?
Ammonia bicarbonate is nothing at all (nor is ammonia carbonate).Ammonium bicarbonate is a real chemical, and it has formula NH4HCO3 (the combination of ammonium ion (NH4+) and the bicarbonate ion (HCO3-).Ammonium carbonate is a similar chemical with formula (NH4)2CO3, and is the combination of 2 NH4+ ions with one carbonate ion (CO32-).
What is the chemical reaction between ammonia and hydrogen?
They are not reacting. But there is a reaction between hcl and ammonia.
Do kidneys convert ammonia to bicarbonate ion?
Converting ammonia to bicarbonate ion seems like something an alchemist would do. Kidneys (ours, at least) convert nitrogenous wastes (things like ammonia or compounds with an amine group attached - R-NH2) to urea, which is far less toxic than ammonia.
Is the reaction of ammonia exothermic or endothermic?
Previous answer: ExothermicEdit by a concerned member of the community: Reaction of ammonia with WHAT?
What is reaction between ammonia and ammonium nitrate?
There is no reaction
Buy bicarbonate of ammonia for baking?
I make Danish Christmas cookies and need bicarbonat of ammonia for one of the recipies. I have not been able to find in in any grocery store. However, Ammonium Carbonate (Drugstore) and a couple drops of vinegar will function well. Most drugstores also have bicarbonate of ammonia :-)!
Where does Baking soda come from?
The baking soda we use for cooking is all made artificially. You add salt (sodium chloride) and limestone (calcium carbonate) in ammonia- the limestone is there to produce CO2 gas. In neutral or basic solutions, sodium bicarbonate is less water-soluble than sodium chloride. When carbon dioxide passes through a concentrated solution of sodium chloride and ammonia, sodium bicarbonate precipitates according to the following chemical reaction: NaCl + CO2 + NH3 + H2O ---> NaHCO3 + NH4Cl The ammonia is necessary to buffer the solution at basic pH. Without it, a hydrochloric acid byproduct would render the solution acidic, and in acidic solutions, the reaction cannot proceed. In industrial practice, the reaction is carried out by passing concentrated salt water through two towers. In the first, ammonia bubbles up through the brine and is absorbed by it. It the second, carbon dioxide bubbles up through the brine and precipitates sodium bicarbonate The baking soda we use for cooking is all made artificially.

How can ammonium bicarbonate be dried?
it can be dried by any dryer at a temperature below its decomposition point (36 0C). Ammonia losses are issue in drying of Ammonium bicarbonate.
What is the reaction o copper and ammonia?
Copper is a metal element. It is not reacting with ammonia.
