Why is solid nahco3 used instead of aqueous nahco3 in the synthesis of tert-butyl chloride?

The solid is used so that no water is added to the reaction, as water would stop the reaction.

What happens when electricity is passed through aqueous solution of sodium chloride?
In aqueous solution, H2 is evolved at the cathode (instead of sodium) and chlorine gas is collected at the anode.
Why not aqueous solution of sodium chloride used instead of molten?
Aqueous solutions indicate that the substance is dissolved in water, whereas molten is where the substance is pure, so there is no water.
Can sodium chloride be used to make soap instead of lye?
No, because sodium chloride isn't alkaline; you could use sodium hydroxide instead of potassium hydroxide (lye) but sodium chloride wouldn't work very well.
Why should large crystals of sodium chloride be used instead of small crystals?
What is the context? Is this a lab or what?
Can I use water soluble Sodium Chloride instead of Potassium Nitrate for Pineapple fertilization?
you can but it you do it will kill the plant...

What is electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride?
Sodium metal can be obtained by electrolysis from molten mixture of sodium chloride and calcium chloride in Down's cell. The metal can not be obtained by electrolysis from aqueous solution, because hydrogen will evolve instead.
How is the electrolysis different when the sodium chloride is dissolved in water?
If you are asking for the difference between the electrolysis of concentrated NaCl and aqueous NaCl, the water molecules in aqueous NaCl undergoes the Redox reactions rather than the sodium and chloride ions because the electric potential is higher. In concentrated NaCl, the chlorine atoms are oxidised instead.
Why electrolysis does not happen in solid sodium chloride?
when an aqueous solution is used, hydrogen gas is evolved at cathode, instead of depositing sodium metal.
What are the catalysts used in friedel-crafts reactions instead of stannic chloride?
aluminum chloride
What is the foreign plural form of synthesis?
That's pretty simple actually, the plural form of synthesis is syntheses! Just an E instead of an I at the end! Hope this helps!!! :D
Why is hydrogen collected at cathode instead of sodium during the electrolysis of sodium chloride?
When an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is electrolyzed, hydrogen is produced at the cathode because hydrogen can be produced at a lower voltage than can sodium, and the supply of hydrogen from the water of the solution is sufficient to consume all the current supplied. When molten sodium chloride is electrolyzed, however, sodium is produced at the cathode.
Why is ammonium chloride used as a paste instead of a dry solid in a dry cell?
ammonium chloride is moist
How would you modifyAldol Synthesis of Dibenzalacetone to make benzalacetone instead?
use one equivalent of benzaldehyde instead of two

What happens if you inject sodium chloride instead of morphine?
you die
