				| What do you get with : 
 PtCl4 + Cl2 --> ? PtCl4 + Cl2
 
 from what i see you get no reaction at all.
 -----------------------------------------------
 is this reaction correct?
 
 carbonic acid + sodium bicarbonate -- > carbon dioxide + water + sodium carbonate (washing soda)
 H2CO3      +      NaHCO3            -- >        CO2         +  H2O  +      NaCO
 H2CO3      +     2NaHCO3            -- >        CO2         +  2H2O  +      Na2CO

				| The top one is not a cemical reaction, and I believe the bottom one is correct, haven't done it in a semester, but I destroyed Science this year. |

				| Thx a lot, More questions...
 --------------------
 How is sodium bicarbonate sythesized?
 I thought its a base so i followed the text book method of oxidation and dissolve in water
 2Na + O2 -> 2NaO
 NaO + H2O -> 2Na(OH)
 As you can see, I get sodium hydroxide which is not what i want...wtf...
 --------------------
 How do you sythesize  potassium sulfite? K2SO3
 If you do the same thing as above you get potassium hydroxide (soap).
 --------------------
 The text book listed the above 2 i guess irregular bases but did not explain how they are produced.
 I find this to be the highest order of disorderliness.

				| Actually, I do, but I rather not dig my notes out to do someone else work, and give them answers. They need to learn. |

 |  
				| that's why you tell them the process, not the answer  |

 Na(CO_3)_2 == Sodium Bicarbonate
 
 Where is the carbon in your synthesis reactions?
