Sodium Hydroxide, 50% w/w Safety Data Sheet according to Federal Register / Vol. 58 / Monday, March 26, 2012 / Rules and Regulations Date of issue: Revision date: Supersedes: Version: 1.1 EN (English US) Page 1 SECTION 1: Identification. Product form: Mixtures. Sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, is an inorganic compound with the formula NaOH. It is a white solid ionic compound consisting of sodium cations Na + and hydroxide anions OH −. Sodium hydroxide is a highly caustic base and alkali that decomposes proteins at ordinary ambient temperatures and may cause severe chemical burns.

Heating Energy

The energy required to heat a product can be calculated as

q = c_p m dt (1)

where

q = heat required (kJ)

c_p = specific heat (kJ/kg K, kJ/kg ^oC)

dt = temperature difference (K, ^oC)

Specific Heat Capacity Of Water

Example - Required Heat to increase Temperature i Water

10 kg of water is heated from 20 ^oC to 100 ^oC - a temperature difference 80 ^oC (K). The heat required can be calculated as

q = (4.19 kJ/kg K) (10 kg) (80 ^oC)

= 3352 kJ
