Answer:
No visible reaction is seen to occur when sodium carbonate is added to sodium hydroxide.
Explanation:
When sodium carbonate is added to sodium hydroxide, no visible reaction is seen to occur. This is because, Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a base, which is itself derived when we dissolve the salt, which is Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) in water. The Sodium carbonate salt furnishes Na+ and CO32- ions in solution, from which, Na+ combines with OH- of water to form NaOH. As both sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide contains Na+ ions, hence, there is no visible reaction.
