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 −.
Allyl alcohol is produced commercially by the Olin and Shell corporations through the hydrolysis of allyl chloride: . CH 2 =CHCH 2 Cl + NaOH → CH 2 =CHCH 2 OH + NaCl. Allyl alcohol can also be made by the rearrangement of propylene oxide, a reaction that is catalyzed by potassium alum at high temperature.
In chemistry, acid value (AV, acid number, neutralization number or acidity) is a number used to quantify the acidity of a given chemical substance.It is the quantity of base (usually potassium hydroxide (KOH)), expressed as milligrams of KOH required to neutralize the acidic constituents in 1 gram of a sample.
Sodium hydrosulfide is the chemical compound with the formula NaSH. This compound is the product of the half-neutralization of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
Co 2+ + 2 NaOH → Co(OH) 2 + 2 Na + The compound can be prepared by reacting cobalt(II) nitrate in water with a solution of triethylamine N(C 2 H 5) 3 as both the base and a complexing agent. [3] It can also be prepared by elecrolysis of a solution of cobalt nitrate with a platinum cathode. [5]
