Sodium Phosphate?

Post by RosalieM »

I am preparing a prac for Friday and it says the kids will need sodium phosphate. We only have Tri-Sodium Orthophosphate in the store room. Can anyone tell me if this will do the same job?
Thanks,
Rosalie

Rosalie,

The CSIS manual uses trisodium phosphate as the preferred name for sodium phosphate / trisodium orthophosphate.
In other words they are the same chemical.
Hope this helps.
