  2. Aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqueous_solution

    The first solvation shell of a sodium ion dissolved in water. An aqueous solution is a solution in which the solvent is water. It is mostly shown in chemical equations by appending (aq) to the relevant chemical formula. For example, a solution of table salt, also known as sodium chloride (NaCl), in water would be represented as Na + (aq) + Cl ...

  3. Sodium chlorate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chlorate

    Sodium chlorate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na ClO 3.It is a white crystalline powder that is readily soluble in water. It is hygroscopic.It decomposes above 300 °C to release oxygen [4] and leaves sodium chloride.

  4. Dilution (equation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_(equation)

    For example, if there are 10 grams of salt (the solute) dissolved in 1 litre of water (the solvent), this solution has a certain salt concentration . If one adds 1 litre of water to this solution, the salt concentration is reduced. The diluted solution still contains 10 grams of salt (0.171 moles of NaCl).

  5. Water balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_balance

    [2] [3] In hydrology, a water balance equation can be used to describe the flow of water in and out of a system. A system can be one of several hydrological or water domains, such as a column of soil, a drainage basin, an irrigation area or a city. The water balance is also referred to as a water budget. Developing water budgets is a ...

  6. Neutralization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    acid + base (alkali) → salt + water x H y A + y B(OH) x → B y A x + xy H 2 O. For example: HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H 2 O. The statement is still valid as long as it is understood that in an aqueous solution the substances involved are subject to dissociation, which changes the ionization state of the substances. The arrow sign, →, is used ...

  7. Safe household water storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_household_water_storage

    Safe household water storage is a critical component of a Household Water Treatment and Safe Storage (HWTS) system being promoted by the World Health Organization (WHO) worldwide in areas that do not have piped drinking water. In these areas, it is not uncommon for drinking water to be stored in a pot, jar, crock or other container in the home.

  8. Pascal's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_law

    Pressure in water and air. Pascal's law applies for fluids. Pascal's principle is defined as: A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed incompressible fluid at rest is transmitted equally and undiminished to all points in all directions throughout the fluid, and the force due to the pressure acts at right angles to the enclosing walls.

  9. Chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloride

    In terms of its acid–base properties, chloride is a weak base as indicated by the negative value of the pK a of hydrochloric acid. Chloride can be protonated by strong acids, such as sulfuric acid: NaCl + H 2 SO 4 → NaHSO 4 + HCl. Ionic chloride salts react with other salts to exchange anions.
