Borax solution is a mixture of borax (sodium borate) powder dissolved in water. It is commonly used as a cleaning agent, insecticide, and fungicide. Borax solution can also be used in certain scientific experiments and as a laundry booster.
Borax has a solubility of 5.8 grams per 100 milliliters of solution or 5.8 percent at room temperature. However at an elevated water temperature, more borax will dissolve than at room temperature. As the hot borax solution cools to room temperature, it becomes supersaturated. Supersaturated solutions are unstable and the excess borax will crystallize on any rough surface.
When litmus is added to a solution of borax, it will turn blue. This indicates that the solution is basic or alkaline in nature. Borax, also known as sodium borate, is a weak base that can increase the pH of a solution.
Aqueous solution of borax is basic in nature and will turn red litmus paper blue. This is because borax can accept protons from water, making the solution basic.
Crystals can be grown from borax and boiling water by creating a supersaturated solution of borax in the water. As the solution cools, borax particles start to come together and form crystals. By allowing the solution to sit undisturbed for a period of time, large borax crystals will begin to grow.
When borax is mixed with hot water, it dissolves forming a saturated solution. As the solution cools, the solubility of borax decreases, causing the excess borax to come out of the solution and recrystallize. This process forms crystals as the borax molecules arrange themselves in an organized structure to minimize energy.
The percent composition of boron in borax (sodium tetraborate decahydrate) is approximately 11.3% by mass.
To make liquid borax, you can dissolve borax powder in hot water. Mix until the powder is fully dissolved and the solution becomes clear. Allow the solution to cool before using it.
It is both. It releases a steady amount of both as it dissolves.
You can standardize a hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution using borax (sodium borate) by titrating a known concentration of HCl with a solution of borax. The reaction between HCl and borax can be used to determine the exact concentration of the HCl solution. By accurately measuring the volume of the titrant and using stoichiometry, you can calculate the concentration of the HCl solution.
When you mix borax solution with glue, a chemical reaction occurs where the borax molecules crosslink the polymer chains in the glue. This leads to the formation of a new substance with different properties compared to the original glue and borax solution, constituting a chemical change.
Phenolphthalein would turn pink in a borax solution, indicating the solution is basic. Borax acts as a weak base in solution and would cause phenolphthalein to change color due to its alkaline nature.
