due to formation of caustic soda water becomes more
?
1) hydrated
2)acidic
3) neutral
4alkaline
Answers
Answer:
General Characteristics of Caustic Soda During this process, it generates hydrogen, which has the potential to behave as an explosive gas. ・It is highly hygroscopic, and absorbs the moisture, carbon dioxide, or sulfur dioxide in the air. It is also highly deliquescent and absorbs moisture to form an aqueous solution.
Answer:
The correct answer would be 4) Alkaline. Due to the formation of caustic soda (NaOH), water(H₂O) becomes more alkaline.
Explanation:
Sodium Hydroxide, or NaOH is a strong base which is also an alkali. Being alkali, it means it is able to dissolve in water or H₂O. During any reaction, if the Caustic soda is formed in an aqueous solution alongside water, it turns the water into alkaline because of its chemical properties of being alkaline.
