Is sodium carbonate solution acidic or basic and what is the net chemical equation to represent the reaction of sodium carbonate and hydrochloric acid and what gas is involved?

Sodium carbonate solution is basic in nature after acid hydrolysis of polysaccharide sodium carbonate is added in test tube to neutralize acidic effect and to rise the ph value with the evolvement of carbondioxide gas the reaction between sodium carbonate and hcl gives rise to sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride sodium bi carbonate is then reacted with hcl to form sodium chloride ,water and carbon dioxide


Why Iron chloride acidic while sodium carbonate basic explain?

Iron chloride is acidic because some of the water molecules in its hydration shell deprotonate. Sodium carbonate is basic because its the salt of a weak acid. Thus, some carbonate ions take protons from water, creating basic hydroxide ions.


What colour does litmus indicator turn when put in sodium hydrogen-carbonate?

When litmus indicator is put in sodium hydrogen-carbonate (a mild base), it turns blue. Sodium hydrogen-carbonate, also known as sodium bicarbonate, has a basic pH, which causes the blue color change in the litmus paper. In acidic solutions, litmus would turn red, but in this case, the basic nature of sodium hydrogen-carbonate results in a blue coloration.


Is sodium acidic or basic?

basic


Is sodium bicarbonate acidic?

Is sodium bicarbonate acidic or basic?

Sodium bicarbonate is a basic compound.


Which is more acidic nahco3 or na2co3?

NaHCO3 (sodium bicarbonate) is more acidic than Na2CO3 (sodium carbonate) because NaHCO3 can release more hydrogen ions when it dissolves in water due to the presence of the hydrogen carbonate ion. Na2CO3 contains the carbonate ion, which is a weaker base compared to the bicarbonate ion in NaHCO3.


What is the name of this compound NaCO3 x 10H2O?

Sodium carbonate x water --> sodium carbonate (in solution)--> Sodium Carbonate Decahydrate


Why is Na2CO3 alkaline in nature?

Because it contains sodium cations, which are strongly basic, and carbonate anions which are weakly acidic. So the basic ions win over acidic ions, making Na2CO3 alkaline(i.e. basic).


Why sodium carbonate solution is alkaline in nature?

Sodium carbonate solution is alkaline because of the carbonate ion. Sodium ions do not change the pH. However, carbonate, being the conjugate base of a weak acid (carbonic acid/hydrogen carbonate) does affect the pH. The carbonate ions can abstract a proton to form hydrogen carbonate, HCO3-. When the proton is abstracted from water, hydroxide ions form which results in a higher pH (more basic).


Would you need to use sodium carbonate for the diazotization of p-nitroaniline?

No, You would need a weak acid so the solution would be acidic


Is sodium chlorate basic or acidic?

Sodium chlorate is a salt compound and is neutral, neither basic nor acidic. When dissolved in water, it will form a neutral solution.
