Product Description
What Is Sodium Bicarbonate?
Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO₃), a white crystalline or fine powder, finds widespread application across diverse sectors, including food, pharmaceuticals, cleaning agents, and a range of industrial uses. It has weak alkaline properties and can neutralize acids.
Preparation Method:
Sodium chloride, when combined with ammonia and carbon dioxide, is often used to produce sodium bicarbonate. The reaction is as follows:
NaCl + NH₃ + CO₂ + H₂O → NaHCO₃ + NH₄Cl.
This process is routinely utilized in industrial production to yield sodium bicarbonate of exceptional purity.
