  2. Sodium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_carbonate

    Sodium carbonate (also known as washing soda, soda ash and soda crystals) is the inorganic compound with the formula Na 2 CO 3 and its various hydrates.All forms are white, odourless, water-soluble salts that yield alkaline solutions in water.

  3. Chemistry set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry_set

    The experiments described in the instruction manual typically require a number of chemicals not shipped with the chemistry set, because they are common household chemicals: Acetic acid (in vinegar) Ammonium carbonate ("baker's ammonia" or "salts of hartshorn") Citric acid (in lemons) Ethanol (in denatured alcohol) Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda)

  4. Sodium percarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_percarbonate

    Sodium percarbonate or sodium carbonate peroxide is a chemical substance with empirical formula Na 2 H 3 CO 6. It is an adduct of sodium carbonate ("soda ash" or "washing soda") and hydrogen peroxide (that is, a perhydrate ) whose formula is more properly written as 2 Na 2 CO 3 · 3 H 2 O 2 .

  5. 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 ...

  6. Qualitative inorganic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualitative_inorganic_analysis

    The sodium carbonate test (not to be confused with sodium carbonate extract test) is used to distinguish between some common metal ions, which are precipitated as their respective carbonates. The test can distinguish between copper (Cu), iron (Fe), and calcium (Ca), zinc (Zn) or lead (Pb). Sodium carbonate solution is added to the salt of the ...

  7. Simon's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon's_reagent

    A solution of 2% sodium carbonate in water (solution B) [4] Separate storage of the aldehyde and base are necessary to prevent aldol polymerisation of the aldehyde. When exposed to an amine, reaction with acetaldehyde produces the enamine, which subsequently reacts with sodium nitroprusside to the imine.

  8. Benzaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzaldehyde

    Amygdalin 2 H 2 O HCN benzaldehyde 2 × glucose 2 × Benzaldehyde contributes to the scent of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus). Reactions Benzaldehyde is easily oxidized to benzoic acid in air at room temperature, causing a common impurity in laboratory samples. Since the boiling point of benzoic acid is much higher than that of benzaldehyde, it may be purified by distillation. Benzyl ...

  9. 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:
