*sodium metal ignites upon exposure to water
Because sodium floats on water so it can stay burning, to put out a sodium or oil fire it has to be deprived of air (Powder or covering with fire proof blanket etc.)
The reactants are sodium and water.
Sodium is the metal that produces fire when dropped in water due to its violent reaction, releasing hydrogen gas that ignites upon contact with air. It is highly reactive and must be handled with care.
Sodium chloride (table salt) will not form water and carbon dioxide when it burns. When sodium chloride is heated, it may decompose into sodium and chlorine, but it does not produce water and carbon dioxide as products.
Sodium palmitate produce a permanent lather with hard water..
In both reactions hydrogen gas is released but heat evolved in the sodium reaction is bigger.
The sodium an water react to produce sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas, and large amounts of heat. This heat ignites the hydrogen which in turn sets the sodium on fire. Sodium burns with a yellowish flame.
When sodium catches fire in water, it reacts vigorously to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The reaction is exothermic, causing the hydrogen gas to ignite, resulting in a small explosion and a burst of flame. It is important to exercise caution when handling reactive metals like sodium.
Sodium will react with water to produce sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and water.
It will produce sodium sulfite and water and carbon dioxide
Sodium oxide reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide. The chemical reaction can be represented as: Na2O + H2O → 2NaOH.
Sodium sulfate dissolves in water to produce a solution of sodium sulfate.
Sodium is highly reactive with moisture in the air, which can produce hydrogen gas and cause the sodium to catch fire. By keeping sodium under oil in a tightly sealed container, it is protected from moisture and air, reducing the risk of it reacting and potentially causing a fire.
Sodium and water are HIGHLY reactive. It would only compound the problem.
Sodium reacts violently with water, producing hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide. This reaction can cause the fire to become more intense and spread. Additionally, the release of hydrogen gas can create a flammable atmosphere, making it dangerous to use water to extinguish a sodium fire.
The sodium methoxide reacts with the water to produce sodium hydroxide an methanol.
Water and sodium metal are reactants to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. H2O + Na ==> NaOH + H2 !! VERY dangerous !! Sodium Metal and Water
