What else can I help you with?
Is hydroxide the same with peroxide?
No. Hydroxide is an ion with the formula OH-. It is a very basic (alkaline) ion. The peroxide is either an ion with the formula O22- or a group in a molecule with the formula O2, where each oxygen is bonded to another atom. Peroxide is often used to mean hydrogen peroxide or H2O2
What substance either contains hydroxide ions or reacts with water to from hydroxide ions?
A substance that contains hydroxide ions is sodium hydroxide (NaOH). In contrast, some substances that react with water to form hydroxide ions include magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2).
What is the systematic name of lye?
Lye is one of those "common names" that, particularly when combined with adjectives, might mean a couple of different compounds. The canonical lye is sodium hydroxide. However, potassium hydroxide has very similar chemical properties, and I've seen terms like "wood lye" that indicate it's actually the potassium compound instead. "Caustic lye" is a new one on me; both compounds have common names that include the word caustic (caustic soda for sodium hydroxide, caustic potash for potassium hydroxide), so it might be either one. If it's in a recipe for soap or something, it doesn't really matter all that much; as stated earlier, they have very similar properties and either will work.
What one is stronger either Palladium on carbon or palladium hydroxide?
Palladium hydroxide is typically stronger in terms of catalytic activity compared to palladium on carbon due to the higher oxidation state of palladium in the hydroxide form. Palladium hydroxide is often used in hydrogenation reactions due to its higher reactivity. Palladium on carbon is more commonly used for certain types of hydrogenation reactions where milder conditions are needed.
Why should sodium methoxide 25 percent in methanol be kept tightly closed when not in use?
Firstly, sodium methoxide is extremely toxic, so you want to handle it carefully without ever spilling (e.g. from an unsealed container). Secondly, methanol is hygroscopic and will pick up lots of water from the atmosphere. Water will hydrolyze sodium methoxide into methanol and sodium hydroxide. You wouldn't want your methanol to evaporate either.
Where does Santa Fe get its water?
Depending on the location, it's either the dihydrogen monoxide or hydrogen hydroxide type.
Is Lye is compound?
Yes, it can be either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.
What substance produces hydroxide ions in solution?
All bases, or proton receivers. The definition of a base is that it either introduces hydroxide ions into solution because hydroxide ions are part of the compound, such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or that it takes a proton (Hydrogen cation) away from water in solution, therefore forming a hydroxide ion from it (H2O ---> OH- ion)
A n is a substance that either contains hydroxide ions OH- or reacts with water to form hydroxide ions?
Bronsted-Lowry's BASES are a substance that either contains hydroxide ions OH- or reacts with water to form hydroxide ions.
Is hydroxide the same with peroxide?
No. Hydroxide is an ion with the formula OH-. It is a very basic (alkaline) ion. The peroxide is either an ion with the formula O22- or a group in a molecule with the formula O2, where each oxygen is bonded to another atom. Peroxide is often used to mean hydrogen peroxide or H2O2
What is the Word equation for metals and water?
you might think im stupid but i seriously dont know the answer
Is zinc a product or reactant?
It may be either a reactant or a product depending on what the reaction is. If you react elemental zinc with sulfuric acid to form zinc sulfate and hydrogen, then it is a product. If you react aqueous zinc sulfate with sodium hydroxide to form solid zinc hydroxide and sodium sulfate, then it is a reactant.
Why hydroxide and bicarbonate do not coexist in a solution?
Hydroxide ions (OH-) and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-) do not coexist in the same solution because they can react with each other through acid-base reactions. When hydroxide ions combine with acidic hydrogen ions from the bicarbonate ions, water (H2O) and carbon dioxide gas (CO2) are formed, shifting the equilibrium in favor of either hydroxide or bicarbonate ions, but not both simultaneously in the same solution.
What chemical solution is best to use in your hydrogen generator in your truck to make hydrogen?
Potassium hydroxide solutions are typically used in hydrogen generators. Many other electrolytes, such as sodium chloride, will produce other products (in the cause of NaCl, chlorine gas) which can destroy the system. Sodium hydroxide can also be used, but some sources report that KOH solutions are more conductive. In either case, these electrolytes will provide a very conductive solution without producing undesirable byproducts. A 10% w/v solution of either of these compounds should be satisfactory.
Is zinc sulfate a reactant or a product?
It may be either a reactant or a product depending on what the reaction is. If you react elemental zinc with sulfuric acid to form zinc sulfate and hydrogen, then it is a product. If you react aqueous zinc sulfate with sodium hydroxide to form solid zinc hydroxide and sodium sulfate, then it is a reactant.
Do bases lose or gain hydrogen ions?
Bases gain hydrogen ions (H⁺) in solution. When a base dissolves in water, it either accepts H⁺ ions or produces hydroxide ions (OH⁻), which can react with H⁺ ions to form water. This process results in a decrease in the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution, making it more basic.
What is the basic function of the chemical buffer in the human body?
Chemical buffers in the human body help maintain a stable pH by either absorbing or releasing hydrogen ions in response to changes in acidity. This prevents drastic changes in pH that could disrupt normal cellular function. Buffers can be found in various bodily fluids, such as blood and intracellular fluid.
