Answer 1

Answer:

Hi,

Sodium (Na) is a highly unstable alkali metal. When a cubic centimeter sized piece of sodium is placed into water, a vigorous chemical reaction occurs in which sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas is produced. You can can clarify this reaction by placing a burning matchstick over the evolving Hydrogen gas. If it burns with a "POP" sound we can say that the reaction had took place.

Answer 2

Answer:

Material required:a glass beaker,piece of sodium metal, water

Procedure:Take a glass beaker. Add some water in it. Then put a piece of sodium metal in it

(please take safety caution it can be dangerous)

Observation:As you put piece of sodium metal it will catches fire .

Conclusion:Thus,we can not stored sodium metal in water.so,we store it into kerosene because kerosene didn't react with sodium metal.
