    A base and an acid anhydride, e.g., 2 NaOH + Cl 2 O → 2 NaClO + H 2 O; An acid and a base anhydride, e.g., 2 HNO 3 + Na 2 O → 2 NaNO 3 + H 2 O; In the salt metathesis reaction where two different salts are mixed in water, their ions recombine, and the new salt is insoluble and precipitates. For example:

  3. Sodium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chloride

    Sodium chloride / ˌ s oʊ d i ə m ˈ k l ɔːr aɪ d /, [8] commonly known as edible salt, is an ionic compound with the chemical formula NaCl, representing a 1:1 ratio of sodium and chlorine ions. It is transparent or translucent, brittle, hygroscopic , and occurs as the mineral halite .

  4. Salt metathesis reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_metathesis_reaction

    A neutralization reaction is a type of double replacement reaction. A neutralization reaction occurs when an acid reacts with an equal amount of a base. This reaction usually produces a salt. One example, hydrochloric acid reacts with disodium iron tetracarbonyl to produce the iron dihydride: 2 HCl + Na 2 Fe(CO) 4 → 2 NaCl + H 2 Fe(CO) 4

    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.

  6. 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 ...

  7. Neutralization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutralization_(chemistry)

    For example, sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is a strong base. NaOH(aq) → Na + (aq) + OH − (aq) Therefore, when a strong acid reacts with a strong base the neutralization reaction can be written as H + + OH − → H 2 O. For example, in the reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide the sodium and chloride ions, Na + and Cl − take ...

  8. Chloralkali process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloralkali_process

    2 NaCl + 2 H 2 O → 2 NaOH + H 2 + Cl 2 Without a membrane, the OH − ions produced at the cathode are free to diffuse throughout the electrolyte. As the electrolyte becomes more basic due to the production of OH − , less Cl 2 emerges from the solution as it begins to disproportionate to form chloride and hypochlorite ions at the anode:

  9. Finkelstein reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finkelstein_reaction

    The classic Finkelstein reaction entails the conversion of an alkyl chloride or an alkyl bromide to an alkyl iodide by treatment with a solution of sodium iodide in acetone. Sodium iodide is soluble in acetone while sodium chloride and sodium bromide are not; [ 3 ] therefore, the reaction is driven toward products by mass action due to the ...
