Preparing for tomorrow exams, I woked up to strange stomach pain under my lower abdomen. I actually ate eba late Yester-Night
Once it start, I will just curl myself like snake
I could'nt read, I managed to get some drug I took it and slept only to wake up in pool of my pool/disgusting/ what I never experience.

I took tea, e no work the pain is still down there.
A mind just came I should use salt with cold H2O, I took it now I can stand uprightly.

Have salt, sprite, water work for you before??

SOZINN:
I'm sorry about what happened to you yesterday.
Salt and water works. A blend of salt and water can decontaminate your colon, keep you dehydrated, detox your body and can be used to treat constipation.
Thank God you are feeling better.

Preparing for exams tomorrow. I woked up to due to a pain in my lower abdomen.I ate eba last night.
anytime the pain start's, I usualy curl myself like a snake.
I couldn't read at all,I managed to get some medication and i slept off only to wake up in pool of my puke,It was my firt time experiencing such.

I took tea but the pain still persisted.
suddenly It ocured to me that i should try the salt and cold water(H2O) solution,wich i did and it worked.

Have the salt, sprite, water solution worked for you before??

For science students who don't have time to read long texts, the OP took Sodium Hydroxide (caustic soda) and Hydrochloric Acid to cure stomach pains. Here is the summary:

NaCl + H₂0 ==> NaOH + HCl

Oduok:

I doubt. Salt plus Water just give a a mixture. I don't think they react to give those products.

Gmajor:

Hmmmm
So you add table salt to water and then it forms an acid and a base.
Nawa oh

It's not a reversible reaction. A mixture of salt n water cannot give you acid and base

WoundedLamb:


It can sir. Just not spontaneously but via electrolysis.

Hhmm... Interesting.

What actually happens when salt is dissolved in water is that the water molecules force the Sodium and the the Chloride apart and surround each of those (depending on the charges) and thereby forming a homogenous solution. This breakup implies that the solution isn't a mixture. In other words, the process involves a chemical change (the reactants are different from the products).

However, going from this explanation, you may be correct about the initial products formed. Theoretically, the equation I wrote is correct. But does water actually break up as well? Perhaps not (except when forced). Water has a stronger covalent bond (than the ionic bond of salt), therefore, only the salt is broken down (as explained in the paragraph above). The water remains acqua and surrounds the Sodium of the Chloride (again depending on the charges).

In summary, this is more likely to be the natural result of mixing salt and water:

NaCl ==> Na+ + Cl−

But like I said, the solution can still be forcefully be separated into NaOH + HCL using direct current (electrolysis) thus resulting in the first equation.

Please, feel free to point out any erroneous assumptions. I'm not an authority in chemistry.



See details above.

Oduok:

I love your analysis. The ions can be forcefully dissociated and recombined during electrolysis - not in ordinary dissolution. That is why a mixture of the salt and water can easily be separation by evaporation showing that the process was just a physical change rather than chemical. What's your discipline?

WoundedLamb:


The equation is correct, sir. Just not spontaneously but via electrolysis.

Updated: there's a plus sign between the Hydrogen and Chlorine which was omitted in error (I believe this is the reason I'm called an olodo for making attempts). They are distinct gases not Hydrogen Chloride, the acid. And like I said, that's a correct equation when electrolysis is involved.

I hate how i tend to enjoy comments and look forward to them. lol, cant you just go out of your ways and insult someone or be rude while replying without making much sense so that i can actually laugh out loud. good morning from here
