In the Solvay process, can we obtain sodium carbonate directly by treating the solution containing `(NH_(4))_(2)CO_(3)` with sodium chloride? Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In Solvay process , we cannot obtain directly sodium carbonate by treating the solution containing `(NH_4)_2CO_3` with NaCl because both `Na_2CO_3` and `NH_4Cl` are highly soluble and equilibrium will not shift in the forward direction .
`(NH_4)_2CO_3 + 2NaCl iff Na_2CO_3 + 2NH_4Cl`
