Only these crystals were made of sodium nitrate and sodium acetate, not sugar.

只不过这些晶体是由硝酸钠和醋酸钠制成的，而不是糖。

So when the sodium acetate began to combust, the sodium nitrate sped things up.

因此，当醋酸钠开始燃烧时，硝酸钠就会加速燃烧。

One of the first steps in reprocessing left behind a radioactive solution of compounds, including sodium nitrate and sodium acetate salts.

后处理的前几步之一会留下放射性化合物溶液，包括硝酸钠和醋酸钠盐。

The sodium acetate dissolves readily in water and will stay that way.

乙酸钠很容易溶于水并保持这种状态。

The acetic acid and sodium bicarbonate combine to form sodium acetate, carbon dioxide and water.

乙酸和碳酸氢钠结合形成乙酸钠、二氧化碳和水。

Sodium acetate dissociates completely, thereby providing a ton of acetate ion.

乙酸钠完全解离， 从而提供一吨乙酸根离子。

So something like sodium acetate is far less salty because the acetate ion is much bigger, although it is sometimes used to give chips a salt-and-vinegar flavor.

所以像醋酸钠这样的东西的咸度要低得多，因为醋酸盐离子要大得多，尽管它有时被用来给薯片增加一种盐醋的味道。

We can ignore the sodium from the sodium acetate, although it will stick around, it's just a spectator ion that won't take part of any reactions.

我们可以忽略醋酸钠中的钠，尽管它会残留在周围， 但它只是一个旁观者离子， 不会参与任何反应。

To make the solution a buffer we need to increase the concentration of acetic acids conjugate base, acetate, by adding sodium acetate to it. That would be a good way.

为了使溶液成为缓冲液，我们需要通过向其中添加乙酸钠来增加乙酸共轭碱（乙酸盐）的浓度。那不失为一个好办法。
