Hey folk....
Below is the balanced chemical reaction:
2Na2O2 + 2H2O --------------> 4NaOH + O2
When sodium metal is dipped in water:
Sodium reacts violently with water, because amount of released energy is more than the ignition temperature of hydrogen gas liberated, so hydrogen gas catches fire.
Na + H2O -------> NaOH + H2
Thank you
