1.	In the Solvay process, can we obtain sodium carbonate directly by treating the solution containing(NH_(4))_(2) , CO_(3) with sodium chloride? Explain.
Answer» SOLUTION :`(NH_(4))_(2), CO_(3)` reacts with NaCl and the products are `Na_(2)CO_(3) and NH_(4)Cl`. Both the products are HIGHLY soluble in water and equilibrium can not shift in forward direction. That.s why `Na_(2)CO_(3)`cannot by prepared directly.
