Whenever you mix an acid and an alkali, you always get a salt and water regardless of what the acid and alkali are. So in this case you would get sodium citrate and water as an end product.

Why it is not good to use sodium hydroxide to neutralise the acid in a bee sting?

Maybe it is, or maybe it isn't. It depends on a lot, such as the age of the Alkaline, or your blood type, or how your skin reacts to Acids and Alkalies. It also depends on the acid your NAOH (Sodium Hydroxide), is neutralizing with, in this case, a bee sting, HCO2H, (Methanoic acid, or Formic acid). The Bee`s acid has a pH(acidity) of 2.3. The Sodium Hydroxide has a pH(Alkalinity) of 14. Therefore the Sodium Hydroxide is stronger than the Methonoic Acid, and may result not only neutralizing an acid, but leaving behind severe burns and toxins in the skin.

What does it take to make washing soda sodium carbonate Na2CO3 to fizz?

When washing soda (sodium carbonate) comes in contact with something acidic, such as vinegar or lemon juice, it will fizz due to a chemical reaction that releases carbon dioxide gas. This fizzing occurs as the carbon dioxide gas is produced and escapes from the solution.


Why tarnished copper vessel regains its shine when rubbed with lemon?

Copper vessels tarnish by reacting with oxygen in the air (black copper oxide is formed) or by reacting with water (green copper hydroxide is formed, commonly known as VERDIGRIS ; pronounced ver-dee-gree). These substances coat the metal and can be very difficult to remove as they often sit in small depressions in the surface of the metal and they aren't very soluble in water Lemon juice contains citric acid. This reacts with the copper oxide and copper hydroxide to produce copper citrate. This is readily soluble in water and washes off easily, leaving the sparkling and unadulterated shiny copper surface.

Is sodium hydroxide or lemon juice more acidic?

Lemon juice is more acidic. Lemon juice has a pH of 2, which is very acidic. Sodium hydroxide is alkaline, with a pH of 14. However, I'd consider sodium hydroxide considerably more dangerous, as even a small splash can cause painful burning.

What is the difference between salt water and lemon juice?

Salt water is a solution of salt (sodium chloride) dissolved in water, while lemon juice is a liquid made by extracting juice from lemons. Salt water is saline and has a salty taste, while lemon juice is acidic and has a sour taste. On a chemical level, salt water contains primarily sodium and chloride ions, while lemon juice contains citric acid and vitamin C.
