Soda and lime are added to a glass batch in the form of soda ash (Na2CO3) and limestone (CaCO3). During heating, these two ingredients decompose to give off carbon dioxide (CO2), the resulting products being soda and lime. Compute the masses of soda ash and limestone that must be added to 100 kg of quartz (SiO2) to yield a glass of composition 75 wt% SiO2, 15 wt% Na2O, and 10 wt% CaO

answeridentity;

the term hydride is commonly named after binary compounds that hydrogen forms with other elements of the periodic table. hydride compounds in general form with almost any element, except a few noble gases. the trends and properties vary according to the type of intermolecular force that bonds the elements together, the temperature, its molecular masses, and other components. hydrides are classified into three major groups, depending on what elements the hydrogen bonds to. the three major groups are covalent, ionic, and metallic hydrides. formally, hydride is known as the negative ion of a hydrogen, h-, also called a hydride ion. because of this negative charge, hydrides have reducing, or basic properties. its special characteristics will be further discussed.
