Question

NaCl + H2o + Co2 + NH3 ->NH4Cl + X
name the compound X in this chemical equation . compound X is a major compound of antaacids why? explain the properties of washing soda using compound X with the balanced chemical equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

X is Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3)

Sodium bicarbonate is slightly basic in nature and thus is used in antacids.

We can manufacture washing soda using sodium bicarbonate

NaHCO3 ->(on heating) Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

Na2CO3 + 10H2O -> Na2CO3.10H2O

Na2CO3.10H2O is washing soda.

Hope it helps

Answer 2

1) The compound X is NaHCO3

2) It is basic in nature that is why used to neutralize acid produce in stomach and give relief.

3) 2NaHCO3    ⇒   Na2CO3 +  H2O +CO2

This is white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and form alkaline solution .It has cleansing properties.

Explanation:

The alkaline solution of washing soda is alkaline in nature that is why it changes red litmus blue.
