Hydroxides Sodium hydroxide

Sodium and Potassium Hydroxides. Sodium hydroxide [1310-73-2] and potassium hydroxide [1310-58-3] (Class 1, nonregenerative) are commonly used when moisture and carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulfide must be removed simultaneously (4). Fused sticks or solutions of the alkah hydroxides are frequentiy used. These materials must be handled with care to prevent serious skin bums. 

Calcium hydroxide is a better catalyst at 40-90° than barium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and sodium carbonate for preparing pentaerythritol. Corbellini and...

Again, the waste treatment scenario with incineration has by far to the highest score for human toxicity. The scores for the other scenarios are more or less the same. The incineration of EoL PVC will lead to toxic emissions of metals (arsenic, lead, chromium, see Table 5) causing human health effects. However, the most important contribution to the human health effect is caused by the emission of mercury in the upchain processes of the production of mercury and sodium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide is an auxiliary material in the waste incineration process. Mercury...

The primary synthetic route proceeds via oxidative dimerization of 2-aminoan-thraquinone in the presence of an alkali hydroxide. 2-aminoanthraquinone, for instance, is fused with potassium hydroxide/sodium hydroxide at 220 to 225°C in the presence of sodium nitrate as an oxidant. New techniques involve air oxidation of 1-aminoanthraquinone at 210 to 220°C in a potassium phenolate/sodium acetate melt or in the presence of small amounts of dimethylsulfoxide. A certain amount of water which is formed during the reaction may be removed by distillation in order to improve both efficiency and yield.

Dialysis studies122 of ofellulose and dextran in aqueous solutions of barium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and cadoxene (cadmium hydroxide in ethylenediamine) showed no difference in complexing ability between the two polysaccharides. Furthermore, in solutions having equal base normality, Ba2 , Na ,, nd Cd (ethylenediamine) had loughly equal complexing abilities. 

The reaction without a phase-transfer catalyst yields the desired fluoroalkene in 78-83 % yield only if concentrated base solutions of potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide/potassium hydroxide are used.30 However, 2-[difluoro(methoxy)methyl]penta-fluoropropene was obtained as a side product in 1-13% yield depending on the base. 

Comparison of the electrical conductivities of chromium penta-phenyl hydroxide, sodium hydroxide and ammonia in absolute methyl alcohol and in methyl alcohol-water solution, shows that the former is a very strong base. In aqueous methyl alcohol solution the chromium compound does not appear to approach the limiting value with increasing dilution. The ultra-violet absorption spectrum examined in absolute ethyl alcohol solution resembles that of chromic acid and the dichromates, but the absorption is noticeably greater in the case of the organic compound. 

A suspension of pterin 8-oxide 1 in a 1 1 mixture of TFA-TFAA was stirred for 1 hour at 50°C. The solvent was then evaporated and the residual solid hydrolysed with ammonium hydroxide/sodium hydroxide solution. Acidification gave xanthopterin 2 in quantitative yield.

Like acids, bases have numerous uses in the home and in chemical industries. Nearly 5000 years ago, in the Middle East, the Babylonians made soap using the bases in wood ash. Today, one of Canada s most important industries, the pulp and paper industry, uses huge quantities of a base called sodium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide is also used to manufacture soaps, detergents, dyes, and many other compounds.

Some applioations require the use of a basic medium for ultrasonio digestion. Most such involve biologioal samples the matrix of which is decomposed by hydrolysis — which is more effeotive in a basio medium than in an acidic medium. One example is the digestion of tissues, where sells are disrupted in a basic medium such as that provided by tetramethylammonium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or sodium methoxide. 

Experiment 28. — Place on a piece of glass or in an evaporating dish a small piece of calcium chloride, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and potassium carbonate, and leave them exposed to the air for an hour or more. Describe any marked change which takes place. How does the action differ from that in Exp. 27 Where and why was this property of calcium chloride utilized ... 

Measure 10 cc. of water into a test tube, take the temperature, add at one time 5 gm. of fused calcium chloride. As it dissolves, stir with the thermometer and observe the highest reading. Record in the proper place in the table below. Repeat successively with separate portions of water and the ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, -dehydrated copper sulphate, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and concentrated sulphuric acid (add the acid to the water). Tabulate the results as follows —... 

Cleaning Up Place all solutions used in this experiment in a beaker (unused ammonium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide solution used to clean out the tubes, Tollens reagent from all tubes). Remove any silver mirrors from reaction tubes with a few drops of nitric acid, which is added to the beaker. Make the mixture acidic with nitric acid to destroy unreacted Tollens reagent, then neutralize the solution with sodium carbonate and add some sodium chloride solution to precipitate silver chloride (about 40 mg). The whole mixture can be flushed down the drain or the silver chloride collected by suction filtration and the filtrate flushed down the drain. The silver chloride would go in the nonhazardous solid waste container.
