What else can I help you with?
What compound has the formula NaHCO3?
Sodium bicarbonate has the chemical formula NaHCO3. It is commonly known as baking soda and is used in cooking and baking as a leavening agent. It can also be used as an antacid to relieve heartburn and indigestion.
Is sodium bicarbonate polar or non polar?
Sodium bicarbonate is ionic and would therefore be considered polar.
What colour does pH paper change to if sodium bicarbonate is added?
pH paper would change from red to yellow when sodium bicarbonate is added because sodium bicarbonate is a base and would increase the pH of the solution.
If you have three molecules of of sodium bicarbonate?
Three molecules of sodium bicarbonate would consist of three sodium atoms, three bicarbonate ions, and the corresponding number of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Sodium bicarbonate is represented by the chemical formula NaHCO3.
Would blood be a better buffer if it contained more carbonic acid or sodium bicarbonate?
It would be better if it contained sodium bicarbonate because it wouldn't be as runny.
Why does sodium bicarbonate baking soda absorb more acid stomach than sodium hydroxide?
It won't actually absorb any, and neither will NaOH.NaHCO3 will react with an acid as NaHCO3 + H+ --> Na+ + H2O + CO2The Na+ is countered by the anion on the acid, which in the stomach is Cl-.The reason that NaOH is not used to neutralize stomach acid is that it is a significantly stronger base than NaHCO3, so much so that it would probably give you chemical burns as it went through your system on the way to the stomach.
What is the mass of 1.00 mole of sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3?
The molar mass of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is approximately 84.01 grams per mole. Therefore, the mass of 1.00 mole of sodium bicarbonate would be 84.01 grams.
What does sodium bicarbonate do to you?
Make sure you're not confusing Bicarbonate (which is naturally produced in the human body by the pancreas) with Sodium Bicarbonate (which is not). Bicarbonate ( HCO3− ) is an alkaline that acts as a buffer to maintain the normal levels of acidity (pH) in blood and other fluids in the body. Bicarbonate levels are measured to monitor the acidity of the blood and body fluids. The acidity is affected by the function of the kidneys and lungs. 70%-75% of CO2 in the body is converted into carbonic acid (H2CO3) which can quickly turn into bicarbonate. Acidity is also affected by medications and food we ingest. Bicarbonate is released by the pancreas into the intestines. There it quickly neutralizes any acid that escapes from the stomach into the intestines before it can cause damage.Sodium Bicarbonate( NaHCO3 ) is a white solid that is crystalline but often appears as a fine powder. It has a slight alkaline taste resembling that of baking soda (sodium carbonate). The natural mineral form is known as "nahcolite", but it is also produced artificially. Sodium Bicarbonate has many different applications, used in everything from cooking and cleaning...to putting out fires (NaHCO3 is the component in dry chemical fire extinguishers). In the human body, sodium bicarbonate is used as an antacid to treat acid indigestion and heartburn. An aqueous solution can be administered intravenously for cases of acidosis (low pH), or when there are insufficient sodium or bicarbonate ions in the blood.
What is the weight of sodium bicarbonate?
That would depend on how much you have to weigh.
What is NAHCO3 in H2O?
Na is sodium which has a charge of +1. This is your cation HCO3 is Hydrogen Carbonate which has a charge or -1. This is your anion. Thus your final answer would be Sodium Bicarbonate
What kind of substance is bicarbonate?
Potassium Bicarbonate (KHCO3) is a compound chemically similar to sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) or baking soda. Given that the category is food and cooking, I would say that potassium bicarbonate could be used as a baking soda substitute for those who need to limit their sodium intake.
2What is the formula for sodium bicarbonate?
I assume you mean you want the molecular formula for sodium bicarbonate - if you wanted a balanced equation, you would need another substance to react with But sodium bicarbonate = NaHCO3 While the above answer is help full I am going to assume that the question was what is the balanced equation for the decomposition of sodium bicarbonate. 2NaHCO3--> Na2CO3+CO2+H2O in further detail the reaction for this formula is not decomposition; it is, in fact, combustion because of the carbon dioxide and water in the products of the equation.
