What is the word equation for the reaction that happens between sodium and oxygen?
Na2O
Why sodium is burnt in air?
Sodium does not react easily with oxygen at a room temperature so it has to be heated up a little for the reaction to start. Since air is mostly oxygen once the reaction starts it gets pretty violent and the piece of sodium explode.
What reaction happens when sodium is burnt in oxygen?
Formation of sodium oxide: 4 Na + O2 = 2 Na2O
What is the chemical equation for the reaction of metal sodium with oxygen in air?
Na+O2-->NaO2
What is the chemical reaction of NaO2?
If you think to the preparation of this oxide the reaction is the treatment of sodium peroxide with oxygen at high pressures: Na2O2 + O2 = 2NaO2
Does Sodium Chloride react with Oxygen?
there is no reaction because its salt sodium chloride is what you get after the reaction between sodium and chlorine.
In the reaction of sodium with oxygen what atom will be reduced?
sodium :D
Which is faster reaction of sodium with oxygen or francium with oxygen?
Very probable the reaction of francium with oxygen is faster.
Word equation for the reaction explaining what happens when you burn sodium in air?
Sodium particularly reacts with the Oxygen in the Air while burning. Sodium + Oxygen ----> Sodium oxide
In the reaction of sodium metal with oxygen gas the formula of the product will be?
Na2o

What reaction happens when sodium is burnt in oxygen?
Formation of sodium oxide: 4 Na + O2 = 2 Na2O
What will happen when solid sodium metal is exposed to oxygen?
The product of this reaction will be Na2O.
What is the chemical name of sodium and oxygen?
Sodium and water, in absence of air or oxygen, react to produce hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide. When there is a slight amount of oxygen in the reaction mixture this will immediately and explosively react with hydrogen to form water. That's why this is a dangerous reaction.
What is the chemical equation for the reaction of metal sodium with oxygen in air?
Na+O2-->NaO2
What are chemical properties for sodium?
Sodium is a highly reactive metal. It reacts with water to give sodium hydroxide, and with carbon dioxide to give sodium carbonate. It the reaction with oxygen, the principal product is sodium peroxide.
