Description

This product is a container of Sodium Carbonate Decahydrate, a hydrated crystalline salt commonly known as washing soda and utilized as a versatile laboratory reagent. Identified by the chemical formula Na2​CO3​⋅10H2​O, it is an inorganic compound often used in laboratories as a primary standard for acid-base titrations and as a water softener. Because this decahydrate form is efflorescent—meaning it can lose water molecules to the air and turn into a powdery monohydrate—it must be kept tightly sealed and stored in a cool environment to maintain its specific hydration state and molar mass.
