yes
When a drop of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is added to blue litmus paper, there will be no color change, as blue litmus paper is already indicative of a basic (alkaline) environment. Sodium hydroxide is a strong base, and blue litmus paper remains blue in the presence of bases. In contrast, if red litmus paper were used, it would turn blue, indicating the presence of a base.
a type of ionic compound called sodium sulfide
What is the pH of sodium hydroxide? What I determined from a wide range pH paper is that the pH of a .1 M solution of sodium hydroxide was that between 11 and 12.
The color of pH paper when testing a solution of sodium acetate (CH3COONa) typically ranges from green to blue, indicating a pH above 7, as sodium acetate is a salt formed from a weak acid (acetic acid) and a strong base (sodium hydroxide). This means that in aqueous solution, it tends to be slightly basic. The exact color may vary depending on the concentration of the solution and the specific pH paper used.
The compound Na2S is known as sodium sulfide. It consists of two sodium (Na) ions and one sulfide (S²⁻) ion. Sodium sulfide is commonly used in various industrial processes, including in the production of paper and as a reducing agent in chemical reactions.
Not directly; sodium chlorate/sodium chlorite are used, derived from sodium chloride.
Sodium hydroxide is a strong base, so it will turn blue litmus paper to red. This color change is due to the alkaline nature of sodium hydroxide which reacts with the blue litmus paper to change its color.
Sodium carbonate will turn red litmus paper blue. This is because sodium carbonate is a basic compound and can neutralize the acidity in the red litmus paper, causing it to change color.
Sodium chloride solution is neutral.
Sodium carbonate is a basic compound, so it will turn pH paper blue in color.
pH paper would change from red to yellow when sodium bicarbonate is added because sodium bicarbonate is a base and would increase the pH of the solution.
NOTHING! Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a base, and BLP does not change color with a base.
- sodium chloride is not an acid - in an acid solution the blue litmus paper become red
Litmus paper is a mixture of dyes that change color depending on the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. When exposed to sodium chloride, which is a neutral salt, litmus paper does not undergo a chemical reaction. It remains unchanged in the presence of sodium chloride.
Sodium hydroxide turns red litmus paper blue.
Sodium carbonate is a basic compound that can neutralize acids. When sodium carbonate comes into contact with red litmus paper (which detects acids), it reacts with the acids on the paper to form salts, making the litmus paper turn blue. This color change indicates the presence of a base.
Red litmus paper turns blue in sodium hydroxide because the red litmus paper is indicating the presence of acidity. When it comes into contact with sodium hydroxide, a strong base, the base neutralizes the acid on the litmus paper, causing the color change to blue.
