Sodium hydroxide, chemical formula NaOH, it exists as a solid at room temperature. The solid sodium hydroxide exists mostly as pellets but also as flakes and granules.

The form in which the sodium hydroxide in the bottle are in, are most likely solid pellets.

Some important characteristics of NaOH:

- NaOH, is a deliquescent solid that readily absorbs moisture from the    atmosphere to form a solution.

- Neutralizing NaOH with water or an acid is quite exothermic releasing a lot of heat that can be used in combustion of certain materials. 

- It is soluble in ethanol, methanol and water.

It will be in the form of white pellets/flakes
