When Na metal is dropped in water, it reacts violently to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The chemical equation involved in the reaction is:
2Na+ 2H2O—> 2NaOH+ H2O
2Na+ 2H2O—> 2NaOH+ H2O

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide(NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2).
Na + H2O →NaOH + H2
Na + H2O →NaOH + H2
