When Sodium Hydroxide (Lye, or NaOH) is dissolved, it separates into
Na+ and OH- ions.
The hydroxide ion, (OH-) is considered a base.
Another definition of Acids and Bases is:
An Acid is a proton donor (+ ion) such as: H30+ --> H+ + H2O.
A base is a proton acceptor (- ion) such as: H+ + OH- --> H2O.

What salt is made when sodium hydroxide reacts with hydroxide acid?
There is no reaction. "Hydroxide acid" is water, which does not react with sodium hydroxide.
Is sucrose soluble in sodium hydroxide?
No, sucrose is not soluble in sodium hydroxide without water.
What happens when sodium is added to water and universal indicator?
sodium will react violently with water, and end products are sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. the universal indicator would turn to around orange(?)
What happens when you mix Disodium Phosphate with Sodium Hyrdroxide?
it makes a solution of sodium hydroxide, also called "caustic soda" or "lye" in dissolving, heat is produced - a lot of heat. always add sodium hydroxide to water --- NEVER water to sodium hydroxide (it can be explosive in mixing due to the heat) It should also be noted that the water should always be COLD. Adding sodium hydroxide to hot water will increase the exothermic reaction and result in dangerous spattering.
If you were to make sodium hydroxide from an oxide what oxide would you use?
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is formed.
What happens when you mix water and sodium?
you get salt water which is called sodium hydroxide You get sodium hydroxide as stated above but NOT salt water as this is sodium chloride in water which has the formula NaCl and not NaOH.
What happens when sodium mixes with water?
It produces Sodium hydroxide and Hydrogen
What happens when sodium hydroxide is added to acetic acid?
sodium acetate and water are formed.
What happens when you mix sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid together?
Since Sodium Hydroxide is a base and hydrochloric acid is an acid, you will make water and sodium chloride.
What happens if you mix distilled water and sodium hydroxide?
Sodium hydroxide simply becomes ionized in water, no reaction will occur. And the concentration of NaOH will be reduced, if enough water is added.
What happens after sodium comes in contact with water?
when sodium comes in contact with water,it results in an exothermic reaction to give sodium hydroxide.
What happens if you mix sodium hydrogen and calcium hydroxide as a liquid?
Sodium react with water and release hydrogen.Sodium hydroxide is also formed. Calcium hydroxide remain unchanged.
What happens when sulphuric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide?
sulphuric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium sulphate and water.
What happens if sodium methoxide 25 percent in methanol reacts with water?
The sodium methoxide reacts with the water to produce sodium hydroxide an methanol.
What happens if sodium hydroxide is mixed to the lime water?
Any reaction occur.
What is the solubility of sodium in water?
Sodium doesn't dissolve in water, it reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen: sodium + water ----> sodium hydroxide + hydrogen
Would it matter if droplets of distilled water were left in the buret when it was fill with sodium hydroxide?
Yes, as it will serve to dilute the concentration of the sodium hydroxide being placed in the buret. You will being adding a known concentration of sodium hydroxide and ending up with an unknown concentration.
