v1.c18.s5.6

Now, here, instead of free nitric and hydrochloric acids, we have saturated solutions of a nitrate and a chloride, and an action similar to the above may take place under the influence of heat only, instead of water, the hydrates of the metals present in the nitrate and the chloride are formed. Thus, instead of equation (iii) we may have the following action :— NO₂.OK + 3NaCl + 2H₂O = NOCl + 3NaOH + KOH + Cl₂.
