Answer:
hello buddy,
Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. ... During the reaction, the sodium metal may well become so hot that it catches fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour.
