NaOH + HCL >>>> NaCl + H2O

Basic Acid base neutralization reaction

They do this too. It is more rewarding to get materials from natural sources and processing them to useful products

Better teacher my love for sciences died with the set of teachers I had back then your students are really lucky to have a teacher like you bless up!

Thank you for your kind words

Where do you reside at the moment and what I seek isn't really chemical engineering but your knowledge of basic chemistry.

They do that too. It is more rewarding getting products from natural sources. It pays better than mixing imported acids and bases. We attempt to create our own acids, bases, and salts, in addition to using imported ones as control

Great.

Our head office is located at Ilorin, Kwara State.

The attached picture made my day.

A group of SS2 students in one of the schools I visit to teach Chemistry came excitedly, "Sir, we have produced our own salt. We would not buy salt again in the market."

I taught them in SS1 SEPARATION TECHNIQUES that you can obtain salt (NaCl) by evaporating sea water to dryness.

The students now secretly arranged for one of them to visit Ibeno water and get sample of the seawater which they evaporated to dryness and here comes our locally made salt.

Qualitative Analysis: The salt produced on exposure to air was found to be deliquescent - attracts water from the atmosphere to dissolve itself. It dissolves completely in water. The solution of the salt gave white precipitate when tested with solution of silver nitrate, the precipitate was insoluble in nitric acid (confirmatory test for chlorides)

This indeed is very rewarding as it has been my expectation to help this young minds to begin now to figure out ways of harnessing our natural resources.

While I will continue with the work of purifying the product at my private technical center, I have advised them that the salt need to be purified to remove carbonates and other non-sodium halides etc.

We would in the present state use the salt as preservative for our emulsion paint, we would use it for laboratory test for chlorides and to demonstrate removal of hardness of water (water softening by ion exchange).

My philosophy of high school chemistry is to let them understand the theory, carry out the laboratory practicals, and apply the knowledge to do mini projects.

Nice experiment! But please and please advise them to still buy salt oh because it contains iodine which protects the goiter.
