the halogen dissociates in water to form it's respective acid or acids.
in sodium hydroxide, since all halogens are above hydroxides in the electronegative series, they displace the hydroxide to form the sodiumhalide.

∙ 7y agoHalogens will react with water and sodium hydroxide to form the corresponding sodium halides and hypohalites. Here using chlorine as an example.
Cl2 + H2O --> HCl + HClO
HCl + NaOH --> NaCl + H2O
HClO + NaOH --> NaClO + H2O
So the net equation is:
Cl2 + 2NaOH --> NaCl + NaOCl + H2O

Does alkaline contain dissolved sodium hydroxide?
Sodium hydroxide is an alkaline substance which dissolves in water.
Sodium hydroxide dissolves in water is?
Sodium hydroxide disassociates in water into a solution of Na+ and OH- ions. Itis an exothermic reaction which gives out heat.
What is the word equation for the reaction of Li Na and K with H2O?
Lithium + water = lithium hydroxide + hydrogen Sodium + water = Sodium hydroxide + hydrogen Potassium + water = Potassium hydroxide + hydrogen
What are the reactants when water reacts with sodium metal to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas along with heat and light?
The reactants are sodium and oxygen, which normally forms sodium oxide in air. The sodium metal disassociates water into hydroxide ions (OH) and hydrogen (H), and combines preferentially with the hydroxide to form sodium hydroxide. This is a highly exothermic reaction that can rapidly accelerate as the sodium melts.
What is formed when Cobalt 2 chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide?
The insoluble in water copper(II) hydroxide is formed.
Why is the reaction of calcium hydroxide and sulfuric acid different from sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid?
The reactions of sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide with sulfuric acid will produce sodium sulfate and calcium sulfate respectively (water will be another product in both reactions. Sodium sulfate is soluble in water and so will remain in solution. Calcium sulfate, however, is insoluble and will precipitate as a solid.
What is the solubility of sodium in water?
Sodium doesn't dissolve in water, it reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen: sodium + water ----> sodium hydroxide + hydrogen
Does water react with sodium hydroxide?
No. Water and sodium hydroxide will form a solution, but no reaction occurs.
What salt is made when sodium hydroxide reacts with hydroxide acid?
There is no reaction. "Hydroxide acid" is water, which does not react with sodium hydroxide.
What compound sodium hydroxide and water make all together?
Just a solution of sodium hydroxide in water.
Does sodium chloride form when sodium hydroxide reacts with water?
No Sodium hydroxide solution results -- not sodium chloride.
What is sodium oxide combines with water to make sodium hydroxide?
Sodium Hydroxide does not undergoes chemical change with water. It just becomes dilute or aqueous.
What happens when you mix water and sodium?
you get salt water which is called sodium hydroxide You get sodium hydroxide as stated above but NOT salt water as this is sodium chloride in water which has the formula NaCl and not NaOH.
Is sucrose soluble in sodium hydroxide?
No, sucrose is not soluble in sodium hydroxide without water.
Sodium hydroxide dissolve in water is physical change?
Yes, dissolving sodium hydroxide in water is a physical change.
Does sodium hydroxide release protons when added to water?
No. Sodium hydroxide releases hydroxide ions, which actually take protons out of the solution. This qualifies sodium hydroxide as a base.
What I the product of sodium and water?
Sodium hydroxide I BELIEVE
