Question

write the chemical reactions to describe how baking soda is produced on a large scale. Also write the chemical names of the products obtained in the reaction

Answer 1

2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2.

( sodium Hydrogen Carbonate ) = NaHCO3
sodium Carbonate Na2CO3

Answer 2

The equation of a chemical reaction is:

2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

The products obtained are sodium bicarbonate.

Explanation:

• Sodium hydrogen carbonate is manufactured or produced on a large scale by reacting a cold and concentrated solution of sodium chlride called brine with ammonia carbon dioxide.
• 2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2
• The chemical name baking soda is sodium bicarbonate i.e NaHCO3 or sodium hydrogen carbonate.
