When placed in H2O a sodium pellet catches on fire as hydrogen gas is liberated and sodium hydroxide forms chemical or physical change?
It is a Chemical change
Symbol for Sodium hydroxide?
The symbol for Sodium Hydroxide is NaoH
What is the name of the formula NaOH?
Sodium hydroxide.
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 sodium hydroxide a homo or hetero?
Sodium hydroxide is a chemical compound.
Why is it advisable to remove sodium hydroxide from the burette as soon as possible after titration?
Sodium hydroxide, particularly highly concentrated sodium hydroxide, can dissolve glass if left sitting long enough. Therefore, if you leave the sodium hydroxide in the burette after finishing your titration, you could increase the volume inside the burette from the glass being dissolved from the inside out. This would make the burette measure the titration volume inaccurately and would invalidate the results of future titrations done with this instrument.
What happens when a sugar is placed in sodium hydroxide?
Production of CO2
What is the Name for NaOH?
The chemical name is Sodium Hydroxide. It is made of Na+ ions and OH- ions.
Is sodium hydroxide an acid or a neutral or alkaline?
Sodium Hydroxide Solution is a a strong Alkali with a pH reading of 13.
What are the reactants when water reacts with sodium metal to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas along with heat and light?
The reactants are sodium and oxygen, which normally forms sodium oxide in air. The sodium metal disassociates water into hydroxide ions (OH) and hydrogen (H), and combines preferentially with the hydroxide to form sodium hydroxide. This is a highly exothermic reaction that can rapidly accelerate as the sodium melts.
Would it matter if droplets of distilled water were left in the buret when it was filled 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.

Why ist necessary to rinse the clean burette before filling it with the unstandardised sodium hydroxide solution?
It is a rule of safety in chemistry: to remove any micro-drops of water from the pipette.
When placed in H2O is a sodium pellet that catches on fire as a hydrogen gas is liberated and sodium hydroxide forms a chemical change?
Yes.
NaOH base or acid?
Sodium hydroxide is basic.
What chemicals are there in Sodium hydroxide?
sodium hydroxide is itself a chemical. It can disassociate into a sodium cation and a hydroxide anion
Is sodium hydroxide a metal?
No, sodium hydroxide is a compound.
