  2. Black snake (firework) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_snake_(firework)

    A white mixture of sucrose and sodium bicarbonate will eventually turn black and the snake will grow about 15–50 centimetres (5.9–19.7 in) long after it is lit. [4] Three chemical reactions occur when the snake is lit. Sodium bicarbonate breaks down into sodium carbonate, water vapor, and carbon dioxide: [2] 2 NaHCO 3 (s) → Na 2 CO 3 (s ...

  3. List of alchemical substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_alchemical_substances

    Salt/common salt – a mineral, sodium chloride, NaCl, formed by evaporating seawater (impure form). Salt of tartar – potassium carbonate; also called potash. Salt of hartshorn/sal volatile – ammonium carbonate formed by distilling bones and horns. Tin salt – hydrated stannous chloride; see also spiritus fumans, another chloride of tin.

  4. Sodium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_carbonate

    Sodium carbonate is obtained as three hydrates and as the anhydrous salt: sodium carbonate decahydrate , Na 2 CO 3 ·10H 2 O, which readily effloresces to form the monohydrate. sodium carbonate heptahydrate (not known in mineral form), Na 2 CO 3 ·7H 2 O. sodium carbonate monohydrate (thermonatrite), Na 2 CO 3 ·H 2 O. Also known as crystal ...

  5. Fétizon oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fétizon_oxidation

    Fétizon oxidation is the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols utilizing the compound silver(I) carbonate absorbed onto the surface of celite also known as Fétizon's reagent first employed by Marcel Fétizon in 1968. [1]

  6. Leblanc process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leblanc_process

    The Leblanc process was an early industrial process for making soda ash (sodium carbonate) used throughout the 19th century, named after its inventor, Nicolas Leblanc.It involved two stages: making sodium sulfate from sodium chloride, followed by reacting the sodium sulfate with coal and calcium carbonate to make sodium carbonate.

  7. Solvay process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvay_process

    The ammonia from reaction (III) is recycled back to the initial brine solution of reaction (I). The sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3) precipitate from reaction (I) is then converted to the final product, sodium carbonate (washing soda: Na 2 CO 3), by calcination (160–230 °C), producing water and carbon dioxide as byproducts:

  8. Spectator ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectator_ion

    A spectator ion is an ion that exists both as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation of an aqueous solution. [1]For example, in the reaction of aqueous solutions of sodium carbonate and copper(II) sulfate:

  9. Bucherer–Bergs reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucherer–Bergs_reaction

    Bucherer improved on Bergs’ method, finding that lower temperatures and pressures for the reaction were permissible. Bucherer and Steiner also found that cyanohydrins would react just as well as carbonyl compounds to produce hydantoins. Later, Bucherer and Lieb found that 50% alcohol was an effective solvent for the reaction.
