Mar 3 2022 3:06AM	Extreme	Acknowledged	Chemical formula is NaCHO3 The 3 after the O might have broken onto the next line depending on your screen width, but the formula is correct.
Aug 14 2017 3:11PM	Normal	Acknowledged	The molecular formula, while technically correct, is not in a standard format. Considering that this is an ionic compound, Na should be first in the formula, not C. Or one could go with the standard of elements listed from left to right on the periodic table, making it NaHCO3. There are different formats used in different contexts. Molecular formulae on ChemSpider are ordered according to the Hill System, where Carbon and Hydrogen are first and then the other elements in alphabetical order (for more information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_formula#Hill_system)
Dec 11 2014 5:37PM	Normal	Acknowledged	this is not correct Thank you for your comment, however I'm afraid that it is not clear what you think is incorrect, please email us with further details.
Sep 30 2013 4:14AM	Normal	Acknowledged	Oxford university no longer provide chemical safety data, the melting point given disagrees with that provided by Sigma-Aldrich (300°C), Acros Organics & Fisher Scientific (270°C, decomposition >50°C), and VWR (270°C). Thank you for your feedback reading around (I went to the Alfa Aesar product pages and the Merck Index http://www.rsc.org/Merck-Index/monograph/mono1500008719/) it appears that the situation is a bit more complex - it seems that it is probably incorrect to think of sodium bicarbonate as having a melting point as heating causes thermal decomposition. I've seen several statements along the lines of: -m.p. ≈50°, begins to lose CO2. ≈100°, converts to Na2CO3
