  2. Piranha solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_solution

    Molecular models of the different molecules active in Piranha solution: peroxysulfuric acid (H 2 SO 5) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2). Piranha solution, also known as piranha etch, is a mixture of sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2).

  3. Sodium fusion test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_fusion_test

    The sodium fusion extract is made alkaline by adding NaOH. To this mixture, freshly prepared FeSO 4 solution is added and boiled for some time and then cooled. A few drops of FeCl 3 are added and Prussian blue (bluish green) color forms due to formation of ferric ferrocyanide along with NaCl. This shows the presence of nitrogen in the organic ...

  4. Contact process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_process

    The contact process is a method of producing sulfuric acid in the high concentrations needed for industrial processes. Platinum was originally used as the catalyst for this reaction; however, because it is susceptible to reacting with arsenic impurities in the sulfur feedstock, vanadium(V) oxide (V 2 O 5) has since been preferred.

  5. Kjeldahl method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kjeldahl_method

    The sample solution is then distilled with a small amount of sodium hydroxide (NaOH). [3] NaOH can also be added with a dropping funnel. [4] NaOH reacts the ammonium (NH 4 +) to ammonia (NH 3), which boils off the sample solution. Ammonia bubbles through the standard acid solution and reacts back to ammonium salts with the weak or strong acid.

  6. Sodium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_sulfate

    2 NaOH(aq) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) → Na 2 SO 4 (aq) + 2 H 2 O(l) ΔH = -112.5 kJ (highly exothermic) In the laboratory it can also be synthesized from the reaction between sodium bicarbonate and magnesium sulfate, by precipitating magnesium carbonate. 2 NaHCO 3 + MgSO 4 → Na 2 SO 4 + MgCO 3 + CO 2 + H 2 O

  7. Sulfuric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfuric_acid

    Although nearly 100% sulfuric acid solutions can be made, the subsequent loss of SO 3 at the boiling point brings the concentration to 98.3% acid. The 98.3% grade, which is more stable in storage, is the usual form of what is described as "concentrated sulfuric acid".

  8. Sodium hydrosulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hydrosulfide

    This compound is the product of the half-neutralization of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH). NaSH and sodium sulfide are used industrially, often for similar purposes. Solid NaSH is colorless. The solid has an odor of H 2 S owing to hydrolysis by atmospheric moisture.

  9. Hydrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolysis

    Hydrolysis (/ h aɪ ˈ d r ɒ l ɪ s ɪ s /; from Ancient Greek hydro- 'water' and lysis 'to unbind') is any chemical reaction in which a molecule of water breaks one or more chemical bonds. The term is used broadly for substitution, elimination, and solvation reactions in which water is the nucleophile. [1]
