It doesn't. There is no source of hydrogen atoms in the equation, and there is no zincate. Sodium oxide plus zinc produces zinc oxide plus sodium.

Na2O + Zn ---> ZnO + 2Na

sodium carbonate doesn't give any gas on heating. its sodium bi-carbonate which gives co2 on heating.


What part of sodium hydrochloric acid is responsible for making hydrogen?

There is no such thing as Sodium Hydrochloric acid, but if you react Sodium metal with Hydrochloric acid, you will release hydrogen. The hydrogen comes from hydrochloric acid, which is HCl (hydrogen chloride.) Sodium is Na, just a pure element without any hydrogen in it. 2Na + 2HCl --> 2NaCl + H2 (gas) You don't need HCl to make hydrogen gas. Just tossing the sodium into water will release plenty of hydrogen (and some flames) and give a solution of sodium hydroxide in the water.


What is strange about the metal sodium?

Sodium is strange because it is a soft metal that is typically stored under oil due to its high reactivity with air and water. When exposed to water, sodium can react violently, producing hydrogen gas and heat. Sodium is also commonly found in compounds like table salt (sodium chloride).


What reactants would give sodium chloride plus hydrogen?

Sodium with HCl gives NaCl and H2 2Na + 2HCl -> 2NaCl + H2


Is zinc unreactive to water?

Zinc is unreactive to cold water, but will react with steam to give zinc oxide and hydrogen.


What is the Word equation for iron reacting with steam?

The word equation is that iron or Fe reacts with steam H2O to produce iron oxide and hydrogen gas. Many metals that react with steam will give the products of the specific metal oxide and hydrogen gas.

Is sodium oxide a non polar or a polar bond?

Sodium oxide (Na2O) is a compound with an ionic bond, not a polar covalent bond. Ionic bonds are typically considered nonpolar due to the way electrons are shared. Sodium donates one electron to oxygen, creating a bond where sodium has a positive charge and oxygen has a negative charge.


The difference between ketones and carboxylic acids when reacting with sodium hydrogen carbonate?

The Difference between ketones and carboxylic acids when reacting with sodium hydrogen carbonate is that carboxlic acids give off caron dioxide when a sloution is added to little sodium hydrogen carbonate (or carbonate) solid or solution whereas ketone has no apparent reaction with the carbonate.


When sodium is obtained great care is taken to prevent air coming into contact with sodium Give a reason for this?

When sodium comes into contact with air, it can react quickly to form sodium oxide and sodium hydroxide. This reaction produces heat and can cause the sodium to ignite, leading to a potential fire hazard. Thus, care is taken to prevent air contact to avoid any accidental ignition.


What happens after sodium comes in contact with water?

When sodium comes in contact with water, it reacts vigorously to produce hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic, releasing a significant amount of heat. This can cause the hydrogen gas produced to ignite, resulting in a small explosion.
