Combustion of hydrocarbons produces carbon dioxide and this compound, which reacts with strong acids to form hydronium (hy-DRO-nee-um) ions.
Along with table salt, ammonia, and carbon dioxide, this compound is an input in the Solvay (SOL-VAY) process. It is a byproduct of the Ostwald process used to make nitric acid, and this compound notably has explosive reactions with several pure alkali metals. Combustion of hydrocarbons produces carbon dioxide and this compound, which reacts with strong acids to form hydronium (hy-DRO-nee-um) ions. For 10 points, name this compound sometimes jokingly referred to as "dihydrogen monoxide" (dye-"HIGH"-dro-jen muh-NOX-ide).
