It is not safe to react the most reactive metals (potassium and sodium) with acid in a lab. As you move down the reactivity series (aluminium, zinc, iron) the metals are less reactive, so less ...

The calcium reacts most vigorously with the hydrochloric acid, producing bubbles. The reaction between calcium and the acids does not get as hot as between sodium or potassium with the acids. The ...

Describes acid-base physiology and discusses the diagnosis and treatment of disorders associated with metabolic acidosis and metabolic alkalosis, as well as plasma potassium disorders. Metabolic ...

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...

the sulfuric acid will soak into the paper, reaching the large compartment with the potassium chlorate and sugar mixture, causing a strongly exothermic reaction that ignites the paper. Yet as ...

Upon addition of hydrogen peroxide to Rochelle's salt (sodium potassium tartrate), the hydrogen peroxide decomposes and tartaric acid is oxidized. This reaction proceeds very slowly at room ...
