Chapter 17, Problem 56E

Both sodium hydrogen carbonate (sodium bicarbonate) and sodium hydroxide can be used to neutralize acid spills. What the pH 01100 M NaHCOH(aq) and 1.00 M NaOH(aq) On a per-her basis do these two solutions have an equal capacity to neutralize acids? Explain On a per-grain basis do me two solids. NaHCO (s) and NOH(s), have an equal capacity to neutralize acids? Explain, Why do you suppose mat ${\text{NaHCO}}_{\text{2}}$ is often preferred to NaOH in neutralizing aced spillis?
