To manufacture anhydrous sodium acetate industrially, the Niacet Process is used. Sodium metal ingots are extruded through a die to form a ribbon of sodium metal, usually under an inert gas atmosphere such as N 2 then immersed in anhydrous acetic acid. 2 CH 3 COOH + 2 Na →2 CH 3 COONa + H 2. The hydrogen gas is normally a valuable byproduct.
Anhydrous solvents are commercially available from chemical suppliers, and are packaged in sealed containers to maintain dryness. [4] Typically anhydrous solvents will contain approximately 10 ppm of water and will increase in wetness if they are not properly stored. Organic solutions can be dried using a range of drying agents.
In chemistry, a superacid (according to the original definition) is an acid with an acidity greater than that of 100% pure sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4), [1] which has a Hammett acidity function (H 0) of −12.
Because acetic anhydride is not stable in water, the conversion is conducted under anhydrous conditions. To a decreasing extent, acetic anhydride is also prepared by the reaction of ketene with acetic acid at 45–55 °C and low pressure (0.05–0.2 bar). [8] H 2 C=C=O + CH 3 COOH → (CH 3 CO) 2 O (ΔH = −63 kJ/mol)
Benzenesulfonic acid (conjugate base benzenesulfonate) is an organosulfur compound with the formula C 6 H 6 O 3 S.It is the simplest aromatic sulfonic acid.It forms white deliquescent sheet crystals or a white waxy solid that is soluble in water and ethanol, slightly soluble in benzene and insoluble in nonpolar solvents like diethyl ether.
The anhydrous sulfate is produced by heating the hydrates above 330 °C. X-ray crystallography measurements show that NiSO 4 ·6H 2 O consists of the octahedral [Ni(H 2 O) 6] 2+ ions. These ions in turn are hydrogen bonded to sulfate ions. [5] Dissolution of the salt in water gives solutions containing the aquo complex [Ni(H 2 O) 6] 2+.
Ammonia solutions are used as a cleaning products for many surfaces and applications. Ammonia in water is sold as a cleaning agent by itself, usually labeled as simply "ammonia", as well as in cleaning products combined with other ingredients. It may be sold plain, lemon-scented (and typically colored yellow), or pine-scented (green).
The molecule SO 3 is trigonal planar.As predicted by VSEPR theory, its structure belongs to the D 3h point group.The sulfur atom has an oxidation state of +6 and may be assigned a formal charge value as low as 0 (if all three sulfur-oxygen bonds are assumed to be double bonds) or as high as +2 (if the Octet Rule is assumed).
