Sodium chloride salt solutions

Material Requirements for Preparing Sodium Chloride Salt Solutions (60°F)... 

Though many solutions are colorless and closely resemble pure water in appearance, the differences among solutions are great. This can be demonstrated with the five pure substances, sodium chloride (salt), iodine, sugar, ethyl alcohol, and water. Two of these substances, ethyl alcohol and water, are liquids at room temperature. Let s investigate the properties of the solutions these two substances form. 

An aqueous sodium chloride (NaCl) solution is made up by dissolving 11.7 g pure NaCl in water, and making up the total volume to 1 liter (i.e., 1000 cm3, or 1 dm3). This gives a salt solution of concentration 11.7g dmT3. 

The isothermal evaporation of a sat. soln. of two salts with a common ion leads to the separation of both salts, but with sat. soln. of three salts, this may or may not occur. The isothermal evaporation of solution II furnishes as solid phases the same three salts as are present as solutes. These soln. were called by W. Meyer-hofer congruent solutions, because, on isothermal evaporation, they furnish as solid phases the same salts as are present as solutes in soln. On the other hand, with solution I the salts which separate as solid phases are different from those present in soln., for sodium chloride appears in place of ammonium hydrocarbonate. In contrast with congruent soln., W. Meyerhofer styled them incongrucnt solutions here the sat. soln. contains a different salt from those which are present as solid phases. The gradual addition of sodium chloride to solution I changes the composition of the soln. until the incongruent solution I passes into II ammonium hydrocarbonate does not change when added in a similar manner to solution II.

Carbonates Ammonium carbonate, [CAS 506-87-6] (NH4)2C03, volatile, white solid, soluble, formed by reaction of NH4OH and CO2 by crystallization from dilute alcohol, loses NH3, C02. and H20 at ordinary temperatures, rapidly at 58 0 ammonium hydrogen carbonate, ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium add carbonate NH4HCO3, white solid, soluble, formed by reaction of NH4OH and excess CCL. This salt is the important reactant in the ammonia soda process for converting sodium chloride in solution into sodium hydrogen carbonate solid. 

Why, in the light of the law of molecular concentration, should one expect the solubility of sodium chloride to be lessened by the presence of hydrochloric acid It may be stated that another effect known as the salting-out effect also comes into play here and likewise tends to lessen the solubility of sodium chloride. The great amount of heat liberated when hydrogen chloride dissolves in water indicates a chemical action, and it is very probable that the water and hydrogen chloride unite to form an unstable compound. In the saturated solution then nearly all the water is chemically combined and very little is left to hold sodium chloride in solution. 

Many substances exist as mixtures. A mixture is made up of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded together e.g. sand and salt brine, which is salt and water and other impurities or a saline solution, which is made up of water with sodium chloride salt dissolved in it. The amounts of the substances can vary in a mixture, unlike a compound which has the same fixed proportions of atoms in every molecule and therefore in the bulk substance. 

A saturated solution is formed when no more solute will dissolve in a solution, and excess solute is present. For example, 100 mL of a saturated solution of table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) in water at 20°C contains 36 g of sodium chloride. The solution is saturated with respect to sodium chloride. If more sodium chloride is added to the solution, it will not dissolve. The solution may still be able to dissolve other solutes, however. 

In addition to the reason for incomplete dissociation just considered, there are some cases, e.g., weak acids and many salts of the transition and other metals, in which the electrolyte is not wholly ionized. These substances exist to some extent in the form of un-ionized molecules a weak acid, such as acetic acid, provides an excellent illustration of this type of behavior. The solution contains un-ionized, covalent molecules, quite apart from the possibility of ion-pairs. With sodium chlorides, and similar electrolytes, on the other hand, there are probably no actual covalent molecules of sodium chloride in solution, although there may be ion-pairs in which the ions are held together by forces of electrostatic attraction.

The dissolution of sodium chloride (salt) in water is endothermic. That is, the sodium and chloride ions in solution are at a higher enthalpy than the sodium and chloride ions in the solid. Clearly, the driving force to a lower energy state has been overcome in this case. Another factor that determines the direction in which reactions proceed naturally is entropy chemical (and physical) processes tend to be driven toward the state of highest entropy (to most disorder). 

Sodium sulphate may be produced industrially by the reaction of magnesium sulphate with sodium chloride in solution followed by crystallization, or by the reaction of concentrated sulphuric acid with solid sodium chloride. The latter method was used in the Leblanc process for the production of alkali and has given the name salt cake to impure industrial sodium sulphate. Sodium sulphate is used in the manufacture of glass and soft glazes and in dyeing to promote an even finish. It also finds medicinal application as a purgative and in commercial aperient salts. 

If the feed water containing calcium and magnesium is continued, eventually the resin will become saturated with these ions and no additional exchange occurs. To produce soft water the resin needs to be regenerated, which can be done with a concentrated solution of sodium chloride salt. A number of other ion exchange separations are done commercially. 

Preparation 8-1 A quaternary ammonium salt of hyaluronic acid is dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide. Octyl isocyanate as reactant and di-w-butyl-tin dilaurate as the catalyst are added. The reaction is done at 65°C for 8 h. Afterwards, dibutylamine is added to stop the reaction. Eventually, the reaction mixture is dialyzed in saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution, purified, exchanged from the quaternary ammonium salt to a sodium salt, and finally freeze-dried. 

For each solution, the variations of the shear stress when the shear rate was increased and then decreased are shown in Figure 3. In sodium chloride salt, whether at pH 7 or 8, the flow curves were identical. In sea water and at pH 7, the same curve was obtained. In sea water and at pH 8, the viscosity of the broth increased, and the variation of shear stress with an increasing shear rate was quite different from the variation observed with a decreasing shear rate. 

Polymers were hydrated in distilled, filtered water under mild agitation until dissolution of the polymer was complete. To prepare polymer solutions containing salt, concentrated sodium chloride brine solutions were added to previously dissolved polymer in distilled water. Final polymer concentrations ranging from 1000 to 4500 ppm and salt concentration of 2.0 wt. % NaCl were prepared in this manner for viscometric study. An alternative procedure was used to evaluate the effect of salinity on solution rheology. Solid sodium chloride was slowly added to various concentrations of polymer in solution. These solutions were allowed to equilibrate for approximately 12 to 24 hours prior to obtaining viscometric measurements. 

Specific tests frequently used are (a) neutral 5 % Sodium Chloride salt spray (ASTM B 117, Test Method of Salt Spray (Fog) Testing), (b) 3.5 % Sodium Chloride by alternate immersion (ASTM G 44, Practice for Evaluating Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance of Metals in 3.5 % Sodium Chloride Solution), and (c) exposure to various outdoor atmospheres. Guidelines for outdoor exposure are contained in ASTM G 50, Practice for Conducting Atmospheric Corrosion Tests on Metals. Generic types of atmospheres used are seacoast, industrial, urban, and rural. Sometimes specific geographical locations or local chemical conditions are important because they can produce unique results [2i],...
