Discussion
Three of the following are raw materials for the Solvay process. Which is the odd one out?
Answer: A
Correct answer: sulphur dioxide gas
The Solvay process uses brine, limestone and ammonia. The limestone is calcined to give carbon dioxide and lime, the carbon dioxide and ammonia react with the brine to precipitate sodium bicarbonate, and the lime recovers the ammonia from the ammonium chloride so that it circulates rather than being consumed. Sulphur dioxide has no part in it.
