2 Na+ 2H2O = 2NaOH + H2
2H2 +O2 = 2H2O
The second reaction is in there for a reason: Sodium reacts extremely violently with water. In fact, it creates a two-stage explosion. In the first stage, the sodium creates sodium hydroxide plus hydrogen and a LOT of heat. In the second, the hydrogen ignites to form water. The more sodium you use, the more reaction product you get and the bigger the explosion is.
What else can I help you with?
Sodium oxide reacts with water to produce?
Sodium oxide reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide. The chemical reaction can be represented as: Na2O + H2O → 2NaOH.
Sodium metal is normally stored under water?
Nope. Sodium reacts violently with water. The pure stuff is normally stored under oil.
What is the products of sodium oxide and water?
Sodium oxide reacts with water to produce only one product: sodium hydroxide. The equation for the reaction is Na2O + H2O -> 2 NaOH.
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.
Silicon dioxide reacts with sodium hydroxide to produce what?
Sodium Sillicate, well known for its "crystal garden" experiment.
How is the way the element sodium reacts with water different from the way the compound sodium chloride reacts with water?
Sodium reacts violently with water, while sodium chloride (or table salt) dissolves in water.
What reacts with water to make hydrogen gas?
Aluminium foil, sodium hydroxide
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
What happens if sodium methoxide 25 percent in methanol reacts with water?
The sodium methoxide reacts with the water to produce sodium hydroxide an methanol.
What is alkali formed when sodium reacts with cold water?
Sodium reacts with water to produce Sodium hydroxide and Hydrogen gas.2Na + 2H2O = 2NaOH + H2
Does sodium react with water to make an alkali?
Yes, sodium reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide, which is an alkaline solution. The reaction is highly exothermic and produces hydrogen gas.
Sodium oxide reacts with water to produce?
Sodium oxide reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide. The chemical reaction can be represented as: Na2O + H2O → 2NaOH.
What does sodium reacts with?
Sodium is so reactive it is usually found in compounds. It reacts most violently with water, creating sodium hydroxide.
When sodium metal reacts with water what gas is released?
Hydrogen gas is released when sodium metal reacts with water. This reaction is highly exothermic and produces sodium hydroxide as well.
When sodium oxide reacts with water what base is formed?
NaOH is formed then. NaOH is a strong base.
What element reacts to cold water?
Sodium
How is the way sodium reacts with water different from the way chloride reacts with water?
The reaction with sodium is that there starts to be fire on the water, so it acts violently. Sodium chloride dissolves in water, because it is salt (table salt).
