It is-
The principal process used to manufacture cyanides in which gaseous hydrogen cyanide is produced from methane and ammonia in the presence of oxygen and a platinem catalist.
2 CH4 + 2 NH3 + 3 O2 → 2 HCN + 6 H2O
Gaseous hydrogen cyanide may be dissolved in aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to produce sodium hydroxide.

∙ 14y agoCyanide refers to the CN- ion; a nitrogen triply bonded to a carbon atom, with the majority of the negative charge density on the carbon atom.
To some extent, cyanide behaves in a similar way to Chloride, forming solid ionic compounds such as NaCN and KCN (c.f.NaCl and KCl), and more covalent molecules such as HCN (c.f.HCl).

What Shape of hydrogen cyanide?
the shape of the hydrogen cyanide is linear where three atoms are covalently bonded together with 180 degree angle of bond between them and these elements are carbon(the central atom), hydrogen, and nitrogen
What drugs are most effective in suicide?
Hydrogen Cyanide
What is more polar silicon tetra bromide or hydrogen cyanide?
Hydrogen cyanide would be more polar. Although silicon tetrabromide contains polar bonds, the symmetry of the molecule cancels the polarity out.
Can potassium cyanide kill when placed on wounds?
...from ashigakari.com ...no, because potassium cyanide can only kill when it is mixed with acid, producing hydrogen cyanide. in case of poisoning, the reaction occurs on digestion.
What are the elements of hydrogen sulphide?
Hydrogen and sulphur are the elements in H2S.
How does cyanogen chloride differ hydrogen cyanine?
Cyanogen chloride differs from hydrogen cyanide in chemical structure and formula. Hydrogen cyanide is HCN, composed of the elements hydrogen, carbon, and nitrogen. Cyanogen chloride is ClCN, composed of the elements chlorine, carbon, and nitrogen. From the formulas and structures it is possible to infer that cyanogen chloride is denser as a gas, and less likely to produce cyanide ions (CN-) than hydrogen cyanide.
What Shape of hydrogen cyanide?

What is the common name for HCN?
Hydrogen Cyanide
What chemical agent has smell of bitter almonds?
Cyanide smells of almonds.
What is the charge of hydrogen cyanide?
Hydrogen cyanide is an anion so it is a negatively charged ion.
How is hydrogen cyanide identified?
Try breathing it, if you're still alive, it's not hydrogen cyanide.
What is the chemical name for hydrogen cyanide?
The correct name (after IUPAC rules) is just hydrogen cyanide.
What is the gas in gas chambers?
cyclon b or hydrogen cyanide
What is the correct molar mass for hydrogen cyanide?
Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, has a molar mass of 27.03g/mol.
What else works as fast as potassium cyanide?
sodium cyanide, hydrogen cyanide gas, etc.
What elements are in hydrocyanic acid?
hydrogen(H) and cyanide(CN) which is a polyatomic ion (made up of more than one element)
Is cyanide a liquid?
Hydrogen cyanide is a colorless, extremely poisonous liquid
