What would happen if sodium chloride is taken instead of ammonium chloride during sublimation of ammonium chloride?

The experiment will not work because sodium chloride does not sublime. Ammonium chloride appears to sublime upon heating. However, this process is actually decomposition into ammonia and hydrogen chloride gas. NH4Cl + heat → NH3 + HCl (Wikipedia)


What is the systematic name for NH4 ClO3?

(NH4)+ is Ammonium ion and (CLO3)- is chlorate ion; therefore, the name of the substance would be: Ammonium Chlorate. It is an inorganic compound. It crystallizes in small needles, readily soluble in water. It decomposes at about 102 °C, with liberation of nitrogen, chlorine and oxygen. It is soluble in dilute aqueous alcohol, but insoluble in strong alcohol. Ammonium Chlorate is obtained by neutralizing chloric acid with either ammonia or ammonium carbonate, or by precipitating barium, strontium or calcium chlorates with ammonium carbonate or ammonium sulfate, producing the respective carbonate or sulfate precipitate and an ammonium chlorate solution. Ammonium chlorate is a strong oxidizer and should never be stored with flammable materials. It is very unstable, and will decompose, sometimes violently, at room temperature. This results from the mixture of the reducing ammonium cation and the oxidizing chlorate anion. Even solutions are known to be unstable. Because of the dangerous nature of this salt it should only be kept in solution when needed, and never be allowed to crystallize.


What happens when you add hydrochloric acid to ammonium chloride?

If you're asking about whether or not there would be a reaction, then probably not. You have two compounds with the same anion, so you will just have a big aqueous solution of chloride ions, plus some hydrogen and ammonium ions.


Is ammonium hydroxide soluble in ethanol?

There is no such thing as an ammonium hyroxide salt because when an ammonium ion comes into contact with a hydroxide, it spontaneously forms NH3 gas and water. But fundamentally it would be soluble because all ammonium ions are soluble. Hope this helps


Is ammonium sulfate an acid or base?

No it is not. Examples of Acids, Bases, Alkali and Salt. Hydrochloric Acid is an Acid. All Acids end with the word "Acid" Copper (II) Oxide is a base. All bases end with the word "Oxide" Copper (II) Hydroxide is an Alkali. All Alkali end with the word "Hydroxide". An alkali is basically a soluble base. The rest would be salts. In this case, Ammonium Chloride is a salt.

Is ammonium phosphate soluble?

Ammonium is considered to be a soluble compound so my guess would be, yes. It is.


How is ammonium chloride administered?

When you resubmit your question would you please indicate to whom or what the ammonium chloride is to be administered.


How would you separate lead chloride from mixture of lead chloride and silver chloride?

silver chloride is soluble in ammonia, lead chloride is only slightly soluble in ammonia


Equation for sodium chloride with mercurous nitrate?

Im not quite sure, but since potassium chloride and ammonium nitrate forms kno3, theoretically, sodium chloride and ammonium nitrate would form sodium nitrate. (Im not 100% sure due to that sodium chloride is more soluble than potassium chloride.)

Name a salt which gives white precipitate on ammonium hydroxide solution and is insoluble in excess?

One such salt would be aluminum chloride since it is soluble but when reacted with ammonium hydroxide, the insoluble aluminum hydroxide forms a precipitate. Not sure what is meant by "is insoluble in excess", however.

Why does a precipitate form when ammonium hydroxide and sodium chloride mix with dry ice?

carbondioxide (dry ice) and water form carbonic acid which would nutralize ammonium hydroxide however ammonium chloride is soluable and sodium bicarbonate is insoluable which precipitates out


How Can you separate ammonium chloride from water?

by the process of sublimation the mixture of sodium chloride and ammonium chloride is placed in a dish and covered with an inverted funnel on heating, ammonium chloride will change into vapour,which will condense into a solid in the neck of the funnel ,whereas sodium chloride was left behind the dish


What is the reaction when sodium chloride and ammonium nitrate mixed?

sodium chloride + ammonium nitrate would resolve to ammonium chloride and sodium nitrate due to a 2 salt swip swap like commonly demonstrated in "the golden book of chemistry" the No3 and the halgen group Cl swaping out on both compounds and causing the the respective products to be sodium nitrate NaNo3 and ammonium chloride NH4Cl NaCl + Nh4No3 ----> Nh4Cl + NaNo3 };]


How is ammonium ions formed?

If ammonia is bubbled through an acid, an ammonium salt and hence ion of that acid is formed. Ammonia bubbled through HCl would form ammonium chloride.


What precipitant would form from ammonium nitrate and sodium hydroxide?

There is NO precipitant formed in the following reaction:NH4NO3 + NaOH → NH3 + H2O + NaNO3Ammonia is liberated as a gas.Remember: All sodium and ammonium salts are soluble, as even all nitrates are soluble.
