  2. Sodium bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate

    3 + H 2 O → H 2 CO 3 + OH −. Sodium bicarbonate can sometimes be used as a mild neutralization agent and a safer alternative to strong bases like sodium hydroxide. [79] Reaction of sodium bicarbonate and an acid produces a salt and carbonic acid, which readily decomposes to carbon dioxide and water: [79] NaHCO 3 + HCl → NaCl + H 2 O+CO 2 ...

  3. Solvay process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvay_process

    The Solvay process or ammonia–soda process is the major industrial process for the production of sodium carbonate (soda ash, Na 2 CO 3).The ammonia–soda process was developed into its modern form by the Belgian chemist Ernest Solvay during the 1860s. [1]

  4. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    The bicarbonate buffer system is an acid-base homeostatic mechanism involving the balance of carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3), bicarbonate ion (HCO − 3 ), and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in order to maintain pH in the blood and duodenum , among other tissues, to support proper metabolic function. [ 1 ]

    14 nahco 3 + 5 ca(h 2 po 4) 2 → 14 co 2 + ca 5 (po 4) 3 oh + 7 na 2 hpo 4 + 13 h 2 o Monocalcium phosphate ("MCP") is a common acid component in domestic baking powders. A typical formulation (by weight) could call for 30% sodium bicarbonate, 5–12% monocalcium phosphate , and 21–26% sodium aluminium sulfate .

  6. Sodium formate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_formate

    [2] In the laboratory, sodium formate can be prepared by neutralizing formic acid with sodium carbonate. It can also be obtained by reacting chloroform with an alcoholic solution of sodium hydroxide. CHCl 3 + 4 NaOH → HCOONa + 3 NaCl + 2 H 2 O. or by reacting sodium hydroxide with chloral hydrate. C 2 HCl 3 (OH) 2 + NaOH → CHCl 3 + HCOONa ...
