  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 พ.ค. 2020
  • Sodium amide, commonly called sodamide is the inorganic compound with the formula NaNH2. This solid, which is dangerously reactive toward water, is white, but commercial samples are typically gray due to the presence of small quantities of metallic iron from the manufacturing process.

      You'll get a little bit of tungsten oxide smoke if you turn on a tungsten light that has been cracked. The tungsten wire oxidizes in less than a second, but normally there is an inert gas inside the bulbs to protect it.

      @@benny1330 Why do you say that? The main defining difference is that RFNA contains NO2/N2O4, which are better oxidizers, but aren't HNO3, and don't have protons to donate to turn NH2(-) into NH3 or NH4(+). I understand that WFNA can have some H2O and NO2/N2O4, but no more than RFNA, and WFNA may have trace amounts of HF or other chemicals added to it, but Wikipedia at least makes it sound like WFNA is generally purer HNO3, as does the "main defining difference" I mentioned.
      My best guess is that you're treating NO2/N2O4 as a more concentrated form of HNO3 because it reacts with H2O to form HNO3 (and HNO2) and is a better oxidizer.

    That atomized tungsten was beautiful, which makes me wonder. What _is_ the blackest smoke or vapor or otherwise gaseous product? I know that technically just performing a reaction like this in a sealed vessel would likely raise the density of particles and be blacker, but I mean in terms of visible spectrum photons absorbed per unit mass.
    I guess that might just be something like incomplete hydrocarbon combustion smoke, considering the properties of carbon black.

    EDIT: Finally found out why the compound is called 'amide' despite the fact the term is reserved for derivatives of organic carboxylic acids. The correct name for the NH2 anion is 'azanide' (as per IUPAC), but like with many compounds in chemistry, the term amide is much more widely used and often kept for historical reasons.
    Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azanide
    ---
    I wonder why it's called amide instead of amine. Especially when other inorganic derivatives of ammonia are already called amines (e.g. NH2Cl - chloramine; not to be confused with NH4Cl - ammonium chloride, which is an ionic compound / salt)...
    Is it because amides are weak bases compared to amines? But sodamide is a strong base....
