∙ 14y agoReaction of Ethanol with NaOH involves cleavage of O-H bond and elimination of water.
CH3CH2O-H + NaOH ------------ CH3CH2O-Na +H2O
Sodium ethanoate
CH3CH2O-H consists of CH3CH2O- & H+
& NaOH consists of Na+ & OH-

What happens when sodium reacts with hydrochloric acid?
it results in hydrogen gas and sodium chloride.
What happens when picric acid reacts with sodium bicarbonate?
it gives a salt, CO2 and water
Is sodium sulfate soluble in ethanol?
Sodium sulfate is practically insoluble in ethanol. But it adsorbs ethanol as well as methanol.
What happens when sodium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid?
Sodium Chloride , water and Carbon Dioxide is formed causing "gassing"
What is the balanced equation between sodium and ethanol?
They both have OH. However, in sodium hyrdroxide, the OH- group is attached to the Na+ by an ionic bond. When dissolved it water, OH- would become free ions. On the other hand, in alcohol, the OH is attached to a carbon atom by a covalent bond. It is not an ion. Therefore is would not dissociate in water.
Is sodium soluble in ethanol?
Metallic sodium reacts vigorously with ethanol to form sodium ethanoate.
What happens when bromine reacts with sodium?
Sodium bromide(NaBr) is formed
What happens if sodium methoxide 25 percent in methanol reacts with water?
The sodium methoxide reacts with the water to produce sodium hydroxide an methanol.
What happens when sodium oxide reacts with water?
It will burn
What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?
Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
What happens when ammonium cloride reacts with sodium hydroxide?
Ammonia and sodium chloride are formed.
What happens when sodium monoxide reacts with sulphuric acid?

What type of product is formed on reaction of an alcohol with Na metal?
when sodium react with ethanol ,ethoxide and hydrogen are formed. this reaction is like when sodium reacts with water
What happens when sodium formate reacts with soda lime?
Hydrogen is formed
What happens when sulphuric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide?
sulphuric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium sulphate and water.
What happens when sodium is added into ethanol?
It will create sodium ethoxide. The balanced equation would be 2C2H5OH + 2Na ==> 2C2H5ONa + H2.
What happens when sodium carbonate reacts with of water?
Sodium carbonate doesn't react with water; it is only dissolved and dissociated.
