Borax (sodium borate)

To make gack without borax, you can try using a mixture of cornstarch and water in a 2:1 ratio. Simply combine the two ingredients in a bowl and mix until you reach the desired consistency. You can add food coloring or glitter for extra fun.

all you need to do is mix water glue and borax borax is a type of cleaner so mix it till you see white in a bowl or whatever you are mixing it in still mix till about 1minute then you have goop .ENJOY

To make slime with baby powder, you can start with 1/2 cup of baby powder and gradually add small amounts of water until you reach your desired slime consistency. Keep in mind that the texture of the slime may vary depending on the brand of baby powder used.

When you mix PVA glue with a borax solution, a chemical reaction occurs that creates a substance known as slime. The borax crosslinks the PVA molecules in the glue, creating a stretchy and squishy material. This reaction is often used in making homemade slime for fun and sensory play activities.

When sodium borate (borax) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) are mixed, a chemical reaction occurs, producing boric acid, sodium chloride, and water. The reaction is exothermic, so it will release heat. The resulting solution is commonly used for cleaning or as a mild antiseptic.

To make slime using borax, mix 1/2 cup of white glue with 1/2 cup of water. In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 teaspoon of borax with 1 cup of water, stirring until the borax is dissolved. Slowly pour the borax mixture into the glue mixture while stirring until the slime forms. Knead the slime with your hands until it reaches the desired consistency.

The over all equation is,

2HCl + Na2B4O7.10H2O = H2B4O7 + 2NaCl + 10 H2O

Try at a chemicals store.

(Adding to the first poster's answer):

I've seen borax powder sold in 2 places.

Yes borax is common it is used in household products such as cleaners also borax is it's owne product witch can be used for clothes sinks and so on you can also make a ball with borax but that is mor under polymer

Phenolphthalein is not suitable for titration involving Borax and hydrochloric acid because it changes color at a pH lower (usually around pH 8-9) than the equivalence point of this specific titration. Borax reacts as a weak base while hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, making the equivalence point acidic in nature. A suitable indicator would need to change color near this acidic pH of the equivalence point.

Borax is generally safe for household use in small amounts, but ingesting large amounts can be harmful. It can cause stomach upset, vomiting, and diarrhea. Ingesting a large amount of borax mixed with water could be toxic and potentially dangerous, especially for young children or pets.

Borax can be used with colored clothes, but you should always do a spot test on a small, inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't affect the color of the garment. Additionally, avoid using borax with delicate fabrics or clothing with special washing instructions.

You can substitute borax with baking soda or washing soda in many cleaning and laundry recipes. These alternatives are also effective at removing stains and odors. Just keep in mind that the cleaning strength may vary, so you may need to adjust the amount used.

One will make your clothes smell fresh, the other will dissolve them.

Borax is sodium borate

Caustic Soda is also called lye or sodium hydroxide. It is a very corrosive alkaline material.

Some other Spanish names for borax acid are ácido bórico and tetraborato de sodio.

Borax can be harmful if ingested by your dog. It can cause stomach upset, vomiting, and in severe cases, seizures or organ damage. It's important to keep borax and other cleaning products out of reach of pets to prevent accidental ingestion.

Yes. It kills ants. It's THE ingredient in almost all products to get rid of ants. But instead of wasting money on commercial ant killers, just mix borax with a little honey & place in a lid off an old jam jar.

Borax powder, also known as sodium borate, is a naturally occurring mineral composed of sodium, boron, oxygen, and water. It is derived from evaporated deposits of seasonal lakes. Borax is commonly used as a cleaning agent, insecticide, and in various industrial processes.

To use borax to kill ants, mix equal parts borax and sugar to attract the ants. Place the mixture in areas where you have seen ant activity. The ants will be attracted to the sugar and take the borax back to their colony, which will eventually kill them.

Yes, there are similar products to borax such as washing soda (sodium carbonate), baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), and citric acid. These substances can also be used for cleaning purposes and as natural alternatives to commercial cleaning products.

No, borax is not an acid. It is a salt of boric acid, which has basic properties.

Borax can be used as a household cleaner to remove stains, deodorize, and boost the cleaning power of laundry detergent. It can also be used to control pests, such as ants and cockroaches. Additionally, borax is a key ingredient in making slime and homemade laundry detergent.

Borax got the nickname "Twenty Mule Team" because in the late 1800s in California, twenty-mule teams were used to transport borax from mines to processing plants. The wagons were pulled by 20 mules and the name stuck as a symbol of the borax industry's history.

me and my two friends mixed 200ml of ammonia and 150ml of borax.We thought it didnt do anytihng BUT IT DID!It got really hot then my science teacher got mad that we mixed chemicals with out knowing the out come. now we do know and were allowed to do it again(i think)
