The alkali hydroxides are a class of chemical compound s which are composed of an alkali metal cation and the hydroxide anion HO sup sup . The alkali hydroxides are Lithium hydroxide LiOH Sodium hydroxide NaOH Potassium hydroxide KOH Rubidium hydroxide RbOH Caesium hydroxide CsOH A strong base completely ionizes in aqueous solution to give HO sup sup and a cation.

Refimprove date April 2011 Alkali salts or basic salts are salts which are the product of the neutralization of a strong base and a weak acid. Rather than being neutral, as some salt chemistry salts are, basic salts are, as their name suggests, Base chemistry bases . What makes these compounds basic is that the conjugate base from the weak acid hydrolyzes to form a basic solution. In sodium carbonate , for example, the carbonate from the carbonic acid hydrolyze s to form a basic solution. The chloride from the hydrochloric acid in sodium chloride does not hydrolyze, though, so sodium chloride is not basic. The difference between a basic salt and an alkali is that an alkali is the soluble hydroxide compound of an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal. A basic salt is any salt that hydrolyzes to form a basic solution. The hydroxide compounds are not salts. Another definition of a basic salt would be a salt that contains amounts of both hydroxide and other anions. White lead is an example. It is basic lead carbonate, or lead carbonate hydroxide. These salts are insoluble and are obtained through precipitation reactions . Examples Calcium carbonate Sodium carbonate Sodium acetate Potassium cyanide Sodium sulfide Alkaline salts Alkaline salts are often referenced, as the major component of alkaline Dishwasher Detergent dishwasher detergent powders. ref http www.freepatentsonline.com 4259199.html ref These salts may include Sodium metasilicate alkali metasilicates Sodium hydroxide alkali metal hydroxides Sodium carbonate Examples of other strongly alkaline salts, include Sodium percarbonate Sodium persilicate ?

Diamond Alkali Company was an United States American chemical company incorporated in 1910 in West Virginia by a group of glass industry businessmen from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Pittsburgh . The company soon established a large chemical plant at Fairport Harbor, Ohio , which would operate for over sixty years. In 1948, the headquarters of the company was moved from Pittsburgh to Cleveland, Ohio Cleveland . In 1967, Diamond Alkali and Shamrock Oil Shamrock Oil and Gas merged to form the Diamond Shamrock Corporation . Diamond Shamrock would go on to merge with Ultramar Ultramar Corporation , and the combined company, Ultramar Ultramar Diamond Shamrock Corporation , would in turn be acquired by Valero Energy Corporation in 2001. Diamond Alkali was largely responsible for contamination leading to the creation of a Superfund Site in the Ironbound section of Newark, New Jersey . Between 1951 and 1969, Diamond Alkali in Newark produced approximately 700,000 gallons of the herbicide Agent Orange .

Alkali, or alkaline, soils are clay soil s with high pH 9 , a poor soil structure and a low infiltration capacity. Often they have a hard calcareous layer at 0.5 to 1 metre depth. Alkali soils owe their unfavorable physico chemical properties mainly to the dominating presence of sodium carbonate which causes the soil to swell Citation needed date November 2010 .

Sometimes these soils are also referred to as alkaline sodic soils . br Alkaline soils are Base chemistry basic , but not all basic soils are alkaline, see Alkaline Difference between alkali and base difference between alkali and base Causes The causes of soil alkalinity are natural or they can be man made.

Alkali aggregate reaction is a term mainly referring to a reaction which occurs over time in concrete between the highly alkaline Portland cement cement paste and non crystalline silicon dioxide , which is found in many common Construction aggregate aggregate s. This reaction can cause expansion of the altered aggregate, leading to spalling and loss of strength of the concrete. More accurate terminology The alkali aggregate reaction is a general, but relatively vague, expression which can lead to confusion. Actually, it is recommended to refer to a more precise definition such as one of the following Alkali silica reaction ASR, main article to read first Alkali silicate reaction , and Alkali carbonate reaction . The alkali silica reaction is the most common form of alkali aggregate reaction. br Two other types are the alkali silicate reaction, in which layer silicate minerals clay minerals , sometimes present as impurities, are attacked, and the alkali carbonate reaction, which is an uncommon attack on certain argillaceous dolomite dolomitic limestone s, likely involving the expansion of the mineral Brucite Mg OH sub 2 sub .

unreferenced date August 2009 Under the United Kingdom British Alkali Act 1863 , an Alkali inspector and four subinspectors were appointed to curb discharge into the air of muriatic acid gas hydrogen chloride gas eous hydrochloric acid from the Leblanc process Leblanc alkali works. In 1874, under the Alkali Act 1874, the Inspector became the Chief Inspector. The Chief Inspector was statutorily responsible for the standards set and maintained by the Inspectorate, and reported directly to the Permanent Secretary of his Department. For the first sixty years of its existence, the Inspectorate was solely concerned with the heavy chemical industry chemicals industry , but from the 1920s onwards, its responsibilities were expanded, culminating in the Alkali Order 1958. This placed all major heavy industries which emitted smoke , grit, dust and fumes under the supervision of the Inspectorate. The 1863 Act was repealed and replaced by the Alkali, &c. Works Regulation Act 1881, which was further extended by the Alkali, &c. Works Regulation Act 1892. The 1881 Act was repealed and replaced by the Alkali, &c. Works Regulation Act 1906.
