Answer 1

Answer:

X : NaHCO₃ aka Baking Soda

Explanation:

NaHCO₃ is a mild edible base therefore it is used in antacids (which are used to neutralize the excess acid in our stomach and cure acidity and indigestion).

When Baking soda is heated we get Na₂CO₃. When we add 10 molecules of water to the compound obtained we get washing soda (Na₂CO₃.10H₂0)

2NaHCO₃ + Heat → Na₂CO₃ + H₂0 + CO₂

Na₂CO₃ + 10H₂0 → Na₂CO₃.10H₂0

Hope this helps mate :D
