why would it be dangerous to perpare sodium chloride by reacting sodium with hydrochloric acid
Answers
Sodium is a chemically unstable metal that will react with air, water and just about anything else it can bind with. Throwing a chunk of Sodium into a dish of acid will cause a violent exothermic reaction until the Sodium is consumed.
So, it is advised not to put it into water as explosions can occur. It's also highly unlikely to obtain pure salt solution. So, these salts are mostly made by mixing an acid and an alkali.

Bro answer is below. Please mark me as brainliest. And have a good day. Stay safe! Take care! Bye bye
Explanation:
Since, sodium is a highly reactive metal, thus it reacts with hydrochloric acid vigorously and produces large amount of heat. Thus the reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium is highly explosive. Even sodium reacts with water vigrouly.
