Water reacts with sodium metal to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen along with heat and light. what are the reactants in this chemical reaction?
Sodium metal and water
Can sodium metal become water?
No, sodium metal cannot become water. Sodium is a highly reactive metal, and when it comes into contact with water, it reacts violently and releases hydrogen gas. This reaction can be dangerous and should be avoided.

Water reacts with sodium metal to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas along with heat and light What are reactants in this chemical reaction?
Water and sodium metal are reactants to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. H2O + Na ==> NaOH + H2 !! VERY dangerous !! Sodium Metal and Water
Is sodium an acid or alkali in water?
Sodium metal produces sodium hydroxide in water which is a very strong alkali
Do sodium ion reacts with water?
Sodium ion exist in water as the product of a dissociation; sodium (metal) react violently with water
Sodium is under water metal?
No sodium is an extremely reactive metal that reacts violently with water. Sodium is in fact one of only two metals that is less dense than water, meaning that it can float on water. Whether a metal is underwater or not does not change its identity.
Is salt water known as sodium?
No, salt water is sodium chloride dissolved in water. Sodium is a soft, silvery, and dangerously reactive metal.
What is the use for sodium?
Sodium is a soft metal and can be cut with knife. Sodium metal is used in chemistry lab, sometimes in fireworks. Sodium when exposed to water, reacts vigorously.
Can you drink water if it has sodium in it?
No because the sodium metal is then burned in the water. This makes sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas which you shouldn't have at all.
What alkali is produced when sodium chloride is added to water?
Sodium chloride is dissociated in water in Na+ and Cl-. Sodium is an alkali metal.
Why can't we see store sodium metal in water?
Sodium react violently with water releasing hydrogen !
