SPECIFICATION

Sodium oxide typically appears as a white or grayish solid, and it may adopt different crystalline structures depending on the conditions of its formation.Sodium oxide is usually encountered as a solid at room temperature.The melting point of sodium oxide is relatively high, as it decomposes at elevated temperatures.

Note:

The chemical formula of sodium oxide is Na₂O, indicating that each molecule of sodium oxide consists of two sodium (Na) atoms and one oxygen (O) atom.

Sodium OxideApplications:
Sodium oxide is a crucial component in the glass industry. It is used in the manufacturing of various types of glasses, contributing to the glass's chemical and physical properties. It helps in reducing the melting point of silica (SiO₂) and improving the workability of the glass.
