Question

Which of the following is the chemical reaction involved in the baking soda preparation?

A.

NaHCO3CO_3​+H^+→CO2CO_2​+H2H_2 ​O+ Sodium salt of acid

B.

2NaCl(aq)+2H2H_2 ​O(l)→2NaOH(aq)+Cl2Cl_2​ (g)+H2H_2 ​(g)

C.

NaCl+H2H_2​ O+CO_2+NH3NH_3​→NH4NH_4​ Cl+NaHCO3CO_3​​

D.

Ca(OH)2Ca(OH)_2​+Cl2Cl_2​→CaOCl2Cl_2​+H2H_2 ​O

Correct option is C

Correct option : (c),  NaCl+H2O+CO2+NH3NH4Cl+NaHCO3NaCl+H_2 O+CO_2+NH_3→NH_4 Cl+NaHCO_3

The preparation of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3 typically involves the reaction between sodium carbonate (soda ash Na2CO3 and carbon dioxide CO2​ in the presence of water. The chemical reaction is as follows:

Na2​CO3​(aq)+CO2​(g)+H2O(l)→2NaHCO3​(aq)

Information booster: 

  • Sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) reacts with carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O).
  • The result is the formation of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃), which is the chemical formula for baking soda.
