Question

System 1 (DEMO):Reaction of Sodium Metal with Water Observations: Reaction Type: Balanced Equation: (Na with HgO) Reaction in words: ignite in the presence of oxygen gas in the air. If you observed The hydrogen gas produced in the reaction can flames above, it was likely due to this reaction Reaction Type: Balanced Equation: (hydrogen gas with oxygen gas): System 2: Combustion Reactions of Methane (CH) and Cellulose (empirical formula-Ctloo) a Bunsen burner flame. Observe. Light a wood splint (primarily cellulose fibers). Observe Extinguish the flames. Complete the table below.

Explanation / Answer

Na (s) + H2O (l) give NaOH + + 1/2 H2 (g) (aq) (molecular equation)

This is an example of redox reaction

Net ionic equation is

Na+ + H2O give Na+ + OH- + 1/2 H2 (g)

In this reaction, metallic sodium reacts with water to form NaOH, where sodium is oxidises to Na+ and H+ resuces to 1/2 H2 (where the oxidation state is zero. This reaction is highly exothermic.

The reaction between H2 and O makes flame

the reaction is an example of redox reaction (H is oxidized and O is reduced)

H2 + 1/2 O2 give H2O
