Скачать или смотреть I Made Sodium Metal Using the Castner Process!

Today, we are making Sodium metal, which is best known for its explosive properties when it touches water. (Boom) This explosiveness is due to the reactive nature of the metal, and due to this reactivity, it is not found in nature and has to be made. That's today's plan to try to produce sodium metal. Watch as we demonstrate the fascinating Castner process, a method of producing sodium metal through electrolysis of sodium hydroxide. Learn about the science of electrochemistry and the properties of sodium, an essential alkali metal. Perfect for chemistry lovers and anyone interested in learning about industrial processes.
