  2. Potassium hydrogen phthalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_hydrogen_phthalate

    KHP K + + HP −. and then, acting as a weak acid, hydrogen phthalate reacts reversibly with water to give hydronium (H 3 O +) and phthalate ions. HP − + H 2 O ⇌ P 2− + H 3 O + KHP can be used as a buffering agent in combination with hydrochloric acid (HCl) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The buffering region is dependent upon the pKa, and is ...

  3. Standard solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_solution

    An example of a secondary standard is sodium hydroxide, a hydroscopic compound that is highly reactive with its surroundings. The concentration of a standard solution made with sodium hydroxide may fluctuate overtime due to the instability of the compound, requiring for calibration using a primary standard before use. [3] [5]

  4. Primary standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_standard

    A primary standard in metrology is a standard that is sufficiently accurate such that it is not calibrated by or subordinate to other standards. Primary standards are defined via other quantities like length, mass and time .

  5. Sodium hydroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hydroxide

    Sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, [1] [2] is an inorganic compound with the formula NaOH. It is a white solid ionic compound consisting of sodium cations Na + and hydroxide anions OH −. Sodium hydroxide is a highly corrosive base and alkali that decomposes lipids and proteins at ambient temperatures and may cause severe ...

  6. Lye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lye

    Pellets of soda lye (sodium hydroxide) Pellets of potash lye (potassium hydroxide)Lye is a hydroxide, either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.The word lye most accurately refers to sodium hydroxide (NaOH), [citation needed] but historically has been conflated to include other alkali materials, most notably potassium hydroxide (KOH).

    The sodium sulfate is afterwards fired with calcium carbonate and coal. Sodium carbonate can be extracted from this mixture by washing the mixture with water. [2] Until the rise of the ammonia-soda process, which has better economics, the Leblanc process was used extensively making the United Kingdom the lead in alkali production. By the early ...

    -0.17 [10] While under standard conditions malate cannot reduce the more electronegative NAD +:NADH couple, in the cell the concentration of oxaloacetate is kept low enough that Malate dehydrogenase can reduce NAD + to NADH during the citric acid cycle. Fumarate + 2 H + + 2 e − → Succinate +0.03 [9] O 2 + 2H + + 2e − → H 2 O 2 +0.30
