Sodium- or potassium -hydroxide or carbonate.
Warning: Don't try with uncovered hands to 'feel' (like you do with soap) the compound's crystals, pallets or powder: it will burn you skin!

Why does reducing solute size particle size increase the speed at which the solute dissolves in water?
For the amount of material in the particle the surface area of a small particle is greater than a larger particle. Said another way, the surface area per unit volume is greater for a smaller particle. Dissolving speed is related to the surface area. Therefore a smaller particle dissolves faster than a larger particle.
Can water dissolve more sugar or salt?
More sugar can dissolve in water than salt.
Why is that salt dissolves faster than baking soda in water?
salt doesn't dissolve faster in water than baking soda.....
What are 5 examples of an acide?
is traditionally considered any chemical compound that, when dissolved in water, gives a solution with a hydrogen ion activity greater than in pure water, i.e. a pH less than 7.0. ...
How can you identify if a chemical is an acid?
A chemical can be identified as an acid by testing its pH. A pH value less than seven is considered acidic, while a pH value greater than seven is considered to be a base, or alkaline. Pure water has a pH value of seven.
Why doesn't a sugar cube float in water?
Sugar dissolves in water.
Why is the density of ocean water greater than tap water?
because salt is higher density than water and dissolves in the water, increasing density
What will happen if an object has a density greater than water?
If inserted into the water as a solid "blob" then it will sink - unless it dissolves first. But, if because of the shape, the mass of water displaced by whole object is greater than the mass of the object, it will float - just as ships made of metal do.
Why can carbon dioxide diffuse in the body 20 times faster than 0xygen?
This is because Carbon dioxide is about 25 times more soluble in water than oxygen at body temperature. Carbon dioxide is more soluble because a chemical reaction takes place with water when it dissolves forming Carbonic acid when combined with water. There is no chemical reaction taking place when oxygen dissolves in water.
How do you get dried model glue out?
The only chemical that dissolves it does more damage than the glue.
Why does sugar dissolves faster in hot water than in cold water?
yes
Which dissolves fastest in water do sugar or salt?
Sugar dissolves faster than salt. When a substance dissolves into another substance, it turns into a solution. The substance that is dissolved is the solute.
What dissolves quicker in water?
Any ionic salts dissolves in water quickly.(Like NaCl, Sodium Chloride) as water is a polar solvent. The salt ionizes in water quickly than sugar.
What dissolves better in water salt or baking soda?
If you put salt in warm or cold water it dissolves better and faster than baking soda.

Therefore a smaller particle dissolves faster than a larger particle.
Why does salt dissolve faster in cold water than sugar dissolves in cold water?
Sugar dissolves in water faster than salt because of the structure and bonding of its atoms. The atoms of Sugar are bound very loosely whereas the atoms of salt are tightly bonded as compared to the sugar atoms. That is why sugar dissolves faster than salt.
The atmospheric gas that forms a mild acid when dissolved in water is?
This would be carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide dissolves in water (as all gases do to some extent) it forms carbonic acid, because the chemical formula would be in perfect balance. Carbonic acid has the chemical formula H2CO3. Also carbon dioxide dissolves into water more readily than many other atmospheric gases. CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3
