Sodium characteristics

The need to exchange information on alternative fast reactor coolants was a major consideration in the recommendation by the Technical Working Group on Fast Reactors (TWGFRs) to collect, review and document the information on lead and lead-bismuth alloy coolants technology, thermohydraulics, physical and chemical properties, as well as to make an assessment and comparison with respective sodium characteristics. This report considering these issues has been prepared in response to the recommendation from TWGFR. [Pg.69]

Prepared by the dehydration of benzamide. Hydrolysed by dilute acids and alkalis to benzoic acid. Good solvent. benzopheDone,C]3HioO,PhC(0)Ph. Colourless rhombic prisms, m.p. 49 C, b.p. 306°C. Characteristic smell. It is prepared by the action of benzoyl chloride upon benzene in the presence of aluminium chloride (Friedel-Crafts reaction) or by the oxidation of di-phenylmethane. It is much used in perfumery. Forms a kelyl with sodium. [Pg.57]

Equation V-64 is that of a parabola, and electrocapillary curves are indeed approximately parabolic in shape. Because E ax tmd 7 max very nearly the same for certain electrolytes, such as sodium sulfate and sodium carbonate, it is generally assumed that specific adsorption effects are absent, and Emax is taken as a constant (-0.480 V) characteristic of the mercury-water interface. For most other electrolytes there is a shift in the maximum voltage, and is then taken to be Emax 0.480. Some values for the quantities are given in Table V-5 [113]. Much information of this type is due to Gouy [125], although additional results are to be found in most of the other references cited in this section. [Pg.199]

All the cations of Group I produce a characteristic colour in a flame (lithium, red sodium, yellow potassium, violet rubidium, dark red caesium, blue). The test may be applied quantitatively by atomising an aqueous solution containing Group I cations into a flame and determining the intensities of emission over the visible spectrum with a spectrophotometer Jlame photometry). [Pg.136]

Boron trioxide is not particularly soluble in water but it slowly dissolves to form both dioxo(HB02)(meta) and trioxo(H3B03) (ortho) boric acids. It is a dimorphous oxide and exists as either a glassy or a crystalline solid. Boron trioxide is an acidic oxide and combines with metal oxides and hydroxides to form borates, some of which have characteristic colours—a fact utilised in analysis as the "borax bead test , cf alumina p. 150. Boric acid. H3BO3. properly called trioxoboric acid, may be prepared by adding excess hydrochloric or sulphuric acid to a hot saturated solution of borax, sodium heptaoxotetraborate, Na2B407, when the only moderately soluble boric acid separates as white flaky crystals on cooling. Boric acid is a very weak monobasic acid it is, in fact, a Lewis acid since its acidity is due to an initial acceptance of a lone pair of electrons from water rather than direct proton donation as in the case of Lowry-Bronsted acids, i.e. [Pg.148]

Note cautiously the characteristic odour of acetaldehyde which this solution possesses. Then with the solution carry out the following general tests for aldehydes described on p. 341 Test No. I (SchiflF s reagent). No. 3 (Action of sodium hydroxide). No. 4 (Reduction of ammoniacal silver nitrate). Finally perform the two special tests for acetaldehyde given on p. 344 (Nitroprusside test and the Iodoform reaction). [Pg.75]

The characteristic property of aliphatic nitrocompounds of the type RCHiKOj and RjCHNO, is that they are pseiido cids, I. e., whereas they are neutral in the normal form (A), they are able by tautomeric change under the influence of alkali to give the acidic hydroxy form (B) which thus in turn gives the sodium salt (C). When this sodium salt is treated with one equivalent of hydrochloric acid, the acid form (B) is at once regenerated, and then more slowly reverts to the more stable normal form (A). [Pg.131]

Action of sodium hydroxide, (a) Warm 1 ml. of acetaldehyde with a few ml. of cone, (c.g., 30%) NaOH solution. A yellow resin, having a characteristic odour of bad apples, is formed. Paraldehyde slowly gives a yellow resin. [Pg.342]

If no solid precipitate is obtained but the solution becomes cloudy, a low-melting or liquid phenol is indicated this will, of course, be revealed also by the characteristic phenolic odour. Transfer to a separating-funnel and extract with an equal volume of ether. Separate and dry with anhydrous sodium sulphate. Distil off the ether and identify the residue. [Pg.399]

Salts of amines are generally soluble in water. Upon treatment with 10 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution, the amine will separate if it is insoluble or sparingly soluble in water if the amine is water-soluble, it can be partially volatilised by gentle warming and its presence will be suggested by a characteristic odour. [Pg.420]

Aromatic nitriles are generally liquids or low melting point solids, and usually have characteristic odours. They give no ammonia with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution in the cold, are hydrolysed by boiling aqueous alkali but more slowly than primary amides ... [Pg.805]

Sulphur, as sulphide ion, is detected by precipitation as black lead sulphide with lead acetate solution and acetic acid or with sodium plumbite solution (an alkaLine solution of lead acetate). Halogens are detected as the characteristic silver halides by the addition of silver nitrate solution and dilute nitric acid the interfering influence of sulphide and cyanide ions in the latter tests are discussed under the individual elements. [Pg.1039]

Group II. The classes 1 to 5 are usually soluble in dilute alkali and acid. Useful information may, however, be obtained by examining the behaviour of Sails to alkaline or acidic solvents. With a salt of a water-soluble base, the characteristic odour of an amine is usually apparent when it is treated with dilute alkali likewise, the salt of a water soluble, weak acid is decomposed by dilute hydrochloric acid or by concentrated sulphuric acid. The water-soluble salt of a water-insoluble acid or base will give a precipitate of either the free acid or the free base when treated with dilute acid or dilute alkali. The salts of sulphonic acids and of quaternary bases (R4NOH) are unaflFected by dilute sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid. [Pg.1053]

Step 2. Extraction of the basic components. Extract the ethereal solution (Ej) with 15 ml. portions of 5 per cent, hydrochloric acid until all the basic components have been removed two or three portions of acid are usually sufficient. Preserve the residual ethereal solution (E2) for the separation of the neutral components. Wa.sh the combined acid extracts with 15-20 ml. of ether discard the ether extract as in Step 1. Make the acid extract alkaline with 10-20 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution if any basic component separates, extract it with ether, evaporate the ether, and characterise the residue. If a water-soluble base is also present, it may be recognised by its characteristic ammoniacal odour it may be isolated from the solution remaining after the separation of the insoluble base by ether extraction by distilling the aqueous solution as long as the distillate is alkahne to htmus. Identify the base with the aid of phenyl iso-thiocyanate (compare Section 111,123) or by other means. [Pg.1096]

Substitution can take place by the S l or the 8 2 mechanism elimination by El or E2 How can we predict whether substitution or elimination will be the principal reac tion observed with a particular combination of reactants The two most important fac tors are the structure of the alkyl halide and the basicity of the anion It is useful to approach the question from the premise that the characteristic reaction of alkyl halides with Lewis bases is elimination and that substitution predominates only under certain special circumstances In a typical reaction a typical secondary alkyl halide such as iso propyl bromide reacts with a typical Lewis base such as sodium ethoxide mainly by elimination... [Pg.348]

Froehde s reagent (gives characteristic colorations with certain alkaloids and glycosides) dissolve 0.01 g of sodium molybdate in 1 mL of concentrated H2SO4 use only a freshly prepared solution. [Pg.1191]

Acetaldehyde can be isolated and identified by the characteristic melting points of the crystalline compounds formed with hydrazines, semicarbazides, etc these derivatives of aldehydes can be separated by paper and column chromatography (104,113). Acetaldehyde has been separated quantitatively from other carbonyl compounds on an ion-exchange resin in the bisulfite form the aldehyde is then eluted from the column with a solution of sodium chloride (114). In larger quantities, acetaldehyde may be isolated by passing the vapor into ether, then saturating with dry ammonia acetaldehyde—ammonia crystallizes from the solution. Reactions with bisulfite, hydrazines, oximes, semicarb azides, and 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione [126-81 -8] (dimedone) have also been used to isolate acetaldehyde from various solutions. [Pg.53]

Black Powder. Black powder is mainly used as an igniter for nitrocellulose gun propellant, and to some extent in safety blasting fuse, delay fuses, and in firecrackers. Potassium nitrate black powder (74 wt %, 15.6 wt % carbon, 10.4 wt % sulfur) is used for military appHcations. The slower-burning, less cosdy, and more hygroscopic sodium nitrate black powder (71.0 wt %, 16.5 wt % carbon, 12.5 wt % sulfur) is used industrially. The reaction products of black powder are complex (Table 12) and change with the conditions of initia tion, confinement, and density. The reported thermochemical and performance characteristics vary greatly and depend on the source of material, its physical form, and the method of determination. Typical values are Hsted in Table 13. [Pg.50]

It is the sodium trithiocarbonate from this side reaction that gives the viscose dope its characteristic orange color. [Pg.346]

A persistent idea is that there is a very small number of flavor quaUties or characteristics, called primaries, each detected by a different kind of receptor site in the sensory organ. It is thought that each of these primary sites can be excited independently but that some chemicals can react with more than one site producing the perception of several flavor quaUties simultaneously (12). Sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami quaUties are generally accepted as five of the primaries for taste sucrose, hydrochloric acid, sodium chloride, quinine, and glutamate, respectively, are compounds that have these primary tastes. Sucrose is only sweet, quinine is only bitter, etc saccharin, however, is slightly bitter as well as sweet and its Stevens law exponent is 0.8, between that for purely sweet (1.5) and purely bitter (0.6) compounds (34). There is evidence that all compounds with the same primary taste characteristic have the same psychophysical exponent even though they may have different threshold values (24). The flavor of a complex food can be described as a combination of a smaller number of flavor primaries, each with an associated intensity. A flavor may be described as a vector in which the primaries make up the coordinates of the flavor space. [Pg.3]

Detecting the presence of small, even invisible, amounts of blood is routine. Physical characteristics of dried stains give minimal information, however, as dried blood can take on many hues. Many of the chemical tests for the presence of blood rely on the catalytic peroxidase activity of heme (56,57). Minute quantities of blood catalyze oxidation reactions between colorless materials, eg, phenolphthalein, luco malachite green, luminol, etc, to colored or luminescent ones. The oxidant is typically hydrogen peroxide or sodium perborate (see Automated instrumentation,hematology). [Pg.487]

Docusate Calcium. Dioctyl calcium sulfosuccinate [128-49-4] (calcium salt of l,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)ester butanedioic acid) (11) is a white amorphous soHd having the characteristic odor of octyl alcohol. It is very slightly soluble in water, and very soluble in alcohol, polyethylene glycol 400, and com oil. It may be prepared directly from dioctyl sodium sulfo succinate dissolved in 2-propanol, by reaction with a methan olic solution of calcium chloride. [Pg.201]

Docusate Sodium. Aerosol OT, Colace, and Doxinate are trade names of docusate sodium [577-11-7] (dioctyl sodium sulfo succinate, sodium salt of l,4-bis(2-etliylhexyl)estet butanedioic). This white, wax-like, plastic sohd, with a characteristic odor suggestive of octyl alcohol, is usually available in the form of pellets. One gram of the sodium salt slowly dissolves in about 70 mL water. Docusate sodium is freely soluble in alcohol and glycerol, very... [Pg.201]
