Madzi opanda utoto. Imakhala yolakwika ndi madzi, methanol, acetone, chloroform, ma carbon tetrachloride, aceyl chloride, ma hydyl acetate, ma hydrocarbons osagawika, koma osati ndi ma hydrocarbons okwanira. Zimatha kusungunula mchere wina wambiri, monga siliva nitrate, lithiamu nitrate ndi magnesium bromides. Itha kupanga osakaniza ndi madzi (okhala ndi madzi 16%), ndi mfundo ya 76 ℃. Kuyaka, nthunzi ndi mpweya wake kumatha kupanga zosakaniza zophulika, zomwe zingayambitse kusakaniza ndi kuphulika kwamoto wotseguka, kutentha kwambiri kapena kulumikizana ndi oxidant. Itha kuchitira zinthu mwamphamvu ndi oxidant. Imagwira mwamphamvu kwambiri ndi sulfuric acid, oleum, chlorosulfonic acid, perchlote, etc.
