Sodium tetradecyl sulfate (STS) is a common anionic surfactant. The compound consists of the sodium salt of the micelle -forming sulfate ester of tetradecanol . It is a white, water-soluble solid of low toxicity with many practical uses.
Sodium tungstate is obtained by digestion of tungsten ores, the economically important representatives of which are tungstates, in base. Illustrative is the extraction of sodium tungstate from wolframite: [1] Fe/MnWO 4 + 2 NaOH + 2 H 2 O → Na 2 WO 4 ·2H 2 O + Fe/Mn(OH) 2. Scheelite is treated similarly using sodium carbonate.
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), sometimes written sodium laurilsulfate, is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 11 OSO 3 Na and structure H 3 C−(CH 2) 11 −O−S(=O) 2 −O − Na +. It is an anionic surfactant used in many cleaning and hygiene products. This compound is the sodium salt of the 12 ...
Sodium oxalate starts to decompose above 290 °C into sodium carbonate and carbon monoxide: [2]. Na 2 C 2 O 4 → Na 2 CO 3 + CO. When heated at between 200 and 525°C with vanadium pentoxide in a 1:2 molar ratio, the above reaction is suppressed, yielding instead a sodium vanadium oxibronze with release of carbon dioxide [6]
Salt poisoning is an intoxication resulting from the excessive intake of sodium (usually as sodium chloride) either in solid form or in solution (saline water, including brine, brackish water, or seawater). Salt poisoning sufficient to produce severe symptoms is rare, and lethal salt poisoning is possible but even rarer.
Sodium is a chemical element; it has symbol Na (from Neo-Latin natrium) and atomic number 11. It is a soft, silvery-white, highly reactive metal. Sodium is an alkali metal, being in group 1 of the periodic table. Its only stable isotope is 23 Na. The free metal does not occur in nature and must be prepared from compounds.
Hyponatremia or hyponatraemia is a low concentration of sodium in the blood. [4] It is generally defined as a sodium concentration of less than 135 mmol/L (135 mEq/L), with severe hyponatremia being below 120 mEq/L. [3] [8] Symptoms can be absent, mild or severe.
Sodium erythorbate (C 6 H 7 NaO 6) is a food additive used predominantly in meats, poultry, and soft drinks.Chemically, it is the sodium salt of erythorbic acid.When used in processed meat such as hot dogs and beef sticks, it increases the rate at which nitrite reduces to nitric oxide, thus facilitating a faster cure and retaining the pink coloring.
