Sodium will react with virtually any acid to produce hydrogen gas.

However the heat produced by such a reaction usually ignites the hydrogen.

Which metal and acid would you use to make sodium chloride?

The metal: sodium. The acid: hydrochloric acid.


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 does hydrogen and chlorine make?

Hydrogen and chlorine combine to form hydrogen chloride gas (HCl).


What does sodium and hydorcholric acid make?

What are you missing in the equation sodium and sulphuric acid make hydrogen and what?

In this reaction, sodium reacts with sulphuric acid to produce hydrogen gas and sodium sulfate. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: 2Na + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + H2. Therefore, the missing product is sodium sulfate.

What does hydrogen and sodium make?

Hydrogen and sodium can make sodium hydride, NaH.


What does sodium hydroxide and sulphuric acid make?

When sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid react, they form sodium sulfate and water. This is a neutralization reaction where the acidic and basic components combine to produce a salt and water.


What does citric acid sodium carbonate make?

Citric acid and sodium carbonate combine to form sodium citrate, water, and carbon dioxide, in a chemical reaction. This reaction is commonly used in effervescent products such as bath bombs or antacids.


When hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide combine do they form table salt or sodium metal?

I'm pretty sure combined they form table salt because sodium and chlorine make salt and they have similar properties and it said so in my textbook so yes I think it forms table salt. An acid + metal hydroxide => Salt and water Therefore Hydrochloric acid + Sodium hydroxide => Sodium Chloride + water


What ions that make up hydrochloric acid and sodium chloride?

Sodium chloride contain sodium and chlorine; hydrogen chloride contain chlorine and hydrogen. They are dissociated in water solutions: HCl----------H+ + Cl- NaCl---------Na+ + Cl-


What is Hydrochloric acid made out of?

If you set out to intentionally make this, you'd use the chlor-alkali process, which converts salt water to chlorine, hydrogen and sodium hydroxide...after which they combine the hydrogen and chlorine and dissolve the resulting gas in water to get hydrochloric acid. Most of the HCl made today is a byproduct of another chemical process.
