  • question_answer
    Often a ground glass stopper gets stuck in the neck of a glass bottle containing \[NaOH\] solution. This is due to:

    A) The presence of dirt particles in between.

    B) The formation of solid silicate in between by the reaction of \[Si{{O}_{2}}\] of glass with \[NaOH.\]

    C) The formation of \[N{{a}_{2}}C{{\text{O}}_{3}}\] in between by the reaction of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] of air and \[NaOH.\]

    D) Glass contains a boron compound which forms a precipitate with the \[NaOH\] solution.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[Si{{O}_{2}}+2NaOH\to \underset{Sodium\,silicate}{\mathop{N{{a}_{2}}Si{{O}_{3}}}}\,+{{H}_{2}}O\]
