Answer 2

Ethanol reacts with sodium metal to form products are  $CH_2COONa + H_2$

Explanation:

• An alcoholic solution of sodium ethoxide is very readily obtained by slowly adding thin strips of metallic sodium to excess of absolute ethanol.
• The heat given out during the reaction causes the alcohol to boil, and the preparation should, therefore, be carried out under a reflux condenser.
• Sodium ethoxide is commonly used in the Claisen condensation and malonic ester synthesis.
• Sodium ethoxide may either deprotonate the α-position of an ester molecule, forming an enolate, or the ester molecule may undergo a nucleophilic substitution called transesterification.
