☞You cannot balance Al + NaOH = NaAlO2 + H2 because that reaction will not run. You can never get 2 oxygen atoms on the right hand side of the equation without also getting 2 Na atoms there. This equation will never balance.
☞What you need is to assume that the NaOH is aqueous, so there is water present. Then:
☞Al + NaOH + H2O = NaAlO2 + 1.5H2(g)
☞ΔG(20C) = -455.5kJ (negative, so the reaction runs)
☞ΔH(20C) = -474.9kJ (negative, so the reaction is exothermic)
