Question

Write a chemical equation for sodium + water gives sodium hydroxide + hydrogen

Answer 1

Answer:

$\mathrm{2Na + 2H_{2}O \rightarrow 2NaOH + H_{2}}$

When sodium react with water to give sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.

Na = Sodium

Water = H2O

H2 = Hydrogen

O = Oxygen

OH = Hydroxide

Base + Water ⇒ Salt + Hydrogen gas

Acid + Metal ⇒ Salt + Hydrogen gas

Base + Metal ⇒ Slat + Hydrogen gas

Acid + Metal carbonate / Metal Hydrogen carbonate ⇒ Base + Metal carbonate/ Metal hydrogen carbonate
