  2. Water-reactive substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-reactive_substances

    Water-reactive substances [1] are those that spontaneously undergo a chemical reaction with water, often noted as generating flammable gas. [2] Some are highly reducing in nature. [ 3 ] Notable examples include alkali metals , lithium through caesium , and alkaline earth metals , magnesium through barium .

  3. Barium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium

    Barium is chemically similar to magnesium, calcium, and strontium, but more reactive. Its compounds are almost invariably found in the +2 oxidation state. As expected for a highly electropositive metal, barium's reaction with chalcogens is highly exothermic (release energy). Barium reacts with atmospheric oxygen in air at room temperature.

  4. Reactivity series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

    The most reactive metals, such as sodium, will react with cold water to produce hydrogen and the metal hydroxide: 2 Na (s) + 2 H 2 O (l) →2 NaOH (aq) + H 2 (g) Metals in the middle of the reactivity series, such as iron , will react with acids such as sulfuric acid (but not water at normal temperatures) to give hydrogen and a metal salt ...

  5. Barium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_hydroxide

    Reactions of barium hydroxide with ammonium salts are strongly endothermic. The reaction of barium hydroxide octahydrate with ammonium chloride [18] [19] or [20] ammonium thiocyanate [20] [21] is often used as a classroom chemistry demonstration, producing temperatures cold enough to freeze water and enough water to dissolve the resulting mixture.

  6. Thermochemical cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_cycle

    Consequently, a thermochemical cycle with i steps can be defined as sequence of i reactions equivalent to water-splitting and satisfying equations (4), (5) and (10). The key point to remember in that case is that the process temperature T H can theoretically be arbitrary chosen (1000K as a reference in most of the past studies, for high ...

  7. Barium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_chloride

    Barium chloride is extracted out from the mixture with water. From water solutions of barium chloride, its dihydrate (BaCl 2 ·2H 2 O) can be crystallized as colorless crystals. [2] Barium chloride can in principle be prepared by the reaction between barium hydroxide or barium carbonate with hydrogen chloride.

  8. Barium hydride - Wikipedia

  9. Barium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_nitrate

    Like all soluble barium compounds, barium nitrate is toxic by ingestion or inhalation. [8] Solutions of sulfate salts such as Epsom salts or sodium sulfate may be given as first aid for barium poisoning, as they precipitate the barium as the insoluble (and non-toxic) barium sulfate. Inhalation may also cause irritation to the respiratory tract.
