how many moles of sodium hydroxide would be produced from the reaction of 2.25 sodium

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Start by writing down the balanced chemical equation. Can you do that?

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

2Na + 2H2O => 2NaOH + H2

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Yes. Now, I htink you're missing something here: You have 2.25 sodium of WHAT? Is it grams, mols, atoms, molecules?

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

moles

OpenStudy (abb0t):

2.25 mols of Sodium. Now, you're going to follow this process: \(\sf \color{}{2.25~mol~Na \times \frac{2~mol~NaOH}{2~mol~Na}}\) as you know, it is a 1:1 ratio, so mol of Na = mol of NaOH.
