Hi friend,
Ethanol reacts with metallic sodium to form a salt namely sodium ethanoate.
2C6H5OH+ 2Na->2C6H5ONa+H2 ( gas evolved).
Hope this helped you a little!!!

when sodium metal is dropped in ethanol ..it gives sodium ethoxide and hydrogen gas.
2Na + 2(C2H5OH) → 2(C2H5ONa) + H2
2Na + 2(C2H5OH) → 2(C2H5ONa) + H2
