- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Intense or explosive reaction: Reaction may be particularly intense, violent, or explosive
Grinding sodium acetylide with finely divided lead or mercury may result in a vigorous reaction that releases carbon (J. W. Mellor, 1946. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 5, pp. 848. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).
Sodium borohydride reduces the cations of less reactive metals to their atomic states, including silver, lead, mercury, gold, platinum, and palladium. Sodium borohydride does not react with the reduced metals once they are formed. Hydrogen gas is evolved in the reaction (Eggeman, T. 2001. Hydrides. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. (Online)).
Potential Gas Byproducts
