Sodium bisulfite (or sodium bisulphite, sodium hydrogen sulfite) is a chemical mixture with the approximate chemical formula NaHSO 3.Sodium bisulfite is not a real compound, [2] but a mixture of salts that dissolve in water to give solutions composed of sodium and bisulfite ions.
Attempted isolation of the common salts of bisulfite results in dehydration of the anion with formation of metabisulfite (S 2 O 2− 5), also known as disulfite: 2 HSO − 3 ⇌ S 2 O 2− 5 + H 2 O. Because of this equilibrium, anhydrous sodium and potassium salts of bisulfite cannot be obtained.
Sodium sulfite (sodium sulphite) is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na 2 SO 3.A white, water-soluble solid, it is used commercially as an antioxidant and preservative.
Sodium metabisulfite, despite not being flammable, decomposes in 150 °C of heat releasing toxic gasses when decomposed. It is corrosive when dissolved in water. Some people who are sulfite sensitive may experience an allergic reaction to sodium meta bisulfite, sometimes severe, resulting in labeling requirements for food safety. [20]

A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.
A space-filling model of the sulfite anion.. Sulfites or sulphites are compounds that contain the sulfite ion (systematic name: sulfate(IV) ion), SO 2− 3.The sulfite ion is the conjugate base of bisulfite.
Sodium bisulfate, also known as sodium hydrogen sulfate, [a] is the sodium salt of the bisulfate anion, with the molecular formula NaHSO 4.Sodium bisulfate is an acid salt formed by partial neutralization of sulfuric acid by an equivalent of sodium base, typically in the form of either sodium hydroxide (lye) or sodium chloride (table salt).
