Question

Describe the reaction of sodim with cold water, and iron with steam​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Iron reacts with steam to form hydrogen gas and the oxide Fe3O4.

and sodium reacts with cold water to produce sodium hydroxide with liberation of hydrogen gas

Answer 2

When sodium is dropped in cold water, it reacts explosively and burns with a golden yellow flame. The reaction is exothermic and vigourus. It form sodium hydroxide with the liberation of hydrogen gas.

2 Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2 ↑

The formation of iron(II, III) oxide and hydrogen when red hot iron interacts with steam.

When an iron metal interacts with steam, metal oxide and hydrogen gas are the products that are produced.

3Fe(s) + 4H2O → Fe3O4 + H2
