Write the reaction equation: BeO- BeCl2- Na2BeO2
Beryllium oxide react with hydrogen chloride to produce beryllium chloride and water. Hydrogen chloride – concentrated solution:
1) BeO + 2HCl → BeCl2 + H2O
I would like to note that the chain presented above is obviously missing a couple of links, since it is impossible to immediately obtain Na2BeO2 from BeCl2. There is a more detailed way to obtain the final chemical.
After obtaining BeCl2, let us carry out the reaction of interaction of beryllium chloride and sodium hydroxide with the formation of beryllium hydroxide and sodium chloride. Sodium hydroxide diluted solution:
2) BeCl2 + 2NaOH → Be (OH) 2 + 2NaCl
And now there is a reaction of interaction of beryllium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide with the formation of sodium beryllate and water. This reaction takes place at a temperature of 200-300 ° C:
3) Be (OH) 2 + 2NaOH Na2BeO2 + 2H2O
