For ceramic tile: Apply a bead of LIQUID NAILS adhesive to the back of the tile. Press tile into place. Remove any excess LIQUID NAILS adhesive. Remove tile and allow LIQUID NAILS adhesive to vent for 2 to 3 minutes, then reapply tile and brace if necessary. Cleanup. If this LIQUID NAILS adhesive is wet, use mineral spirits.
When the alkali is sodium hydroxide, a sodium soap is formed. Sodium soaps are hard soaps. When the alkali is potassium hydroxide, a potassium soap is formed. Potassium soaps are softer and are found in some liquid hand soaps and shaving creams. The carboxylate end of the soap molecule is attracted to water.It is called the hydrophilic (water-loving) end.oaps. Soaps are water-soluble sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids. Soaps are made from fats and oils, or their fatty acids, by treating them chemically with a strong alkali. First let's examine the composition of fats, oils and alkalis; then we'll review the soapmaking process.
Pure potassium is a soft, waxy metal that can be easily cut with a knife. It reacts with oxygen to form potassium superoxide (KO 2) and with water to form potassium hydroxide (KOH), hydrogen gas and heat. Enough heat is produced to ignite the hydrogen gas.To prevent it from reacting with the oxygen and water in the air, samples of metallic potassium are usually stored submerged in mineral oil. Potassium forms an alloy with sodium (NaK) that is used as a heat transfer medium in some types of nuclear reactors.Potassium forms many important compounds. Potassium chloride (KCl) is the most common potassium compound.It is used in fertilizers, as a salt substitute and to produce other chemicals. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is used to make soaps, detergents and drain cleaners.ure potassium is a soft, waxy metal that can be easily cut with a knife.
