Is sodium borohydride acidic or basic?
Basic because when sodium borohydride is placed in water, the sodium ion and the borohydride ion split, borohydride abstracts a proton (in the form of H+) from a water molecule.
Is sodium borohydrate same as sodium borohydride?
Yes
Is sodium borohydride the same as sodium borate does it have the same reaction mixed in water?
Sodium borate has the form Na2B4O7 and is usually found as a hydrated compound with the formula Na2B4O7·10H2O. It is better known as Borax and forms putty in water.Sodium borohydride, NaBH4 is a reducing agent that forms sodium hydroxide and hydrogen in water if it is not balanced by a base.
Is sodium bicarbonate considered an acid or a base?
It is a base .... at least to my chemical knowledge
Is sodium saccharin an acid or base?
acid :)
What msds is sodium borohydride?
Sodium borohydride is a common laboratory chemical used as a reducing agent. Its Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) would provide information on its physical and chemical properties, health hazards, safety precautions, and first-aid measures in case of exposure. You can usually find the MSDS for sodium borohydride on the website of the manufacturer or supplier.
