i need naoh for

If you have NaOH and sulfur you can add the aluminum to that to get some sort of complex sulfides. Adding an acid to this produces much more H2S than just adding it to NaOH/S solution


from the osborne illustrated dictionary of science page 169
Quote:

sodium hydroxide (naoh) or caustic soda, a strong base, it reacts with acids to form a sodium salt and water.

OK.....

I would do a little more research before generating amounts of H2S, you might want to know that it's a little bit more toxic than cyanide gas (though the human detection threshold is in the ppb range). In addition, H2S is much more deadly due to the fact that it numbs the sense of smell, and though you will think you are safe, you actually are not.

I find it hard to believe that anyone who can't/won't use capital letters for chemical formulae really needs H2S.
It's even harder to convince me that giving a deadly poison to someone with that poor a grasp of chemistry is a good idea.

JOKEING hee hee you shoud of saw your faces!!!!

Science shouldn't be viewed as a joke, I find it irresponsible of you to post a question regarding chemistry (and the synthesis of a toxic compound), then turn around a few posts later to say you were "joking".

I`m still curious What (s)he wants the H2S for anyway?
I hope it`s not for some sort of crude K3wl15h stink bomb:(

My guess is that the request was aimed at starting a flame-war.

I have a daughter, who even is somewhat older, but she definitely does not post on sites like this. I don't believe that info, people can fill in any value they want....

Let ni3 come back on this and tell us the truth :P.
