- Why is it that when something gains electrons, it is said to be reduced? What is being reduced?arrow_forwardThe Solvay process is multistep industrial method for the manufacture of sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, which is also known as washing soda. Although most of the industrialized world utilizes the Solvay process for production of sodium carbonate, it is not manufactured in the United States because it can be obtained at lower cost from a large natural deposit in Wyoming. Questions 19 through 22 are based on reactions in that process. Sodium carbonate is used for many purposes, including glass manufacturing.
