why NaOH and water of approximately same amount have to added to powdered aspirin tablet?
what does it meant by hydrolysis?
can alkaline be used to do hydrolysis? can you give me a simple example?
can you explain the role of NaOH and water in the reaction to me?
i have read from my textbook that NaOH involved in the hydrolysis as a reactant, then why water is also added ( is that essential to add) ?
is the process of reacting aspirin with NaOH a neutralization reaction?
