sodium + hydrochloric acid → sodium chloride + hydrogen.
2Na(s) + 2HCl(aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + H2(g)
Hydrogen gas produced catches fire. The reaction is very exothermic.
Metallic sodium reacts violently with water. Use a safety screen if you decide to see what happens with acid. Use small pieces of sodium and a wide mouthed reacting vessel ie a beaker rather than a test tube.

Why should you not mix sodium and acid in the lab?
Because if we react sodium with acid in the lab it will be very danger (It can barn the lab )
What is the enthalpy of neutralization for hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide acid?
in my chem 201 lab we found this to be 1.099 kJ/ mol. I am in fact looking for the accepted value as well. So i assume my result is near the accepted i hope. If anyone knows throw down your info.
Does charcoal react with hydrochloric acid?
No it does not. we just did a lab in science and nothing happened. it just got wet.
Industrial preparation of NaOH with diagram?
sodium hydroxide is prepared industrally by the electrolysis of brime but the lab. Preparation is sodium chloride and trioxosulphate(vi)acid.
Which substance reacts with acid to form hydrogen gas?
Many metals react with an acid to form hydrogen. A common chemistry lab activity is to react zinc metal with hydrochloric acid to create hydrogen gas and aqueous zinc chloride.

How is nitric acid prepared in the lab.?
Nitric acid is produced mainly by oxidation of ammonia, called the Oswald Process. Small amounts can be produced by the treatment of sodium nitrate with sulfuric acid.
Which group I and group VII elements react together most vigorously?
Francium and Fluorine. They would react instantaneously and explosively. However, this would never be done in an open lab. , because francium is radio-active. However, Sodium (Grp (I)) and Chlorine (Grp(VII)), will react in a gas jar in the lab. But less vigorously than the above two.
Chemical name of muriatic acid and lye?
muriatic acid is the common name for HCl or hydrochloric acid. In most cases, it is a lower grade of HCl. Not as pure or as concentrated as a Lab grade or better HCl.Lye is the common name for NaOH or sodium hydroxide
Will sodium carbonate react with copper II nitrate?
It makes a pale blue precipitate. Look here. I suppose that would be considered a reaction, so Yes, it does react. http://genchem.chem.wisc.edu/lab/CCA/MVHTM/CUSO/CUSONACO.HTM
