Question

Which of the following is a product formed when \(Na_2O\) and \(H_2O\) react together?

\(Na_2OH\\
O_2\\
NaOH\\
H_2\)

Answer 1

@Abhisar I think it is the last one

Answer 2

What do you think?

Answer 3

I think it is the last one

Answer 4

Na, sodium is a metal and metallic oxides react with water, give alkali. Ring a bell?

Answer 5

Wait, no, the 3rd one

Answer 6

Why not the first one?

Answer 7

Wouldn't there also be 2 hydrogen and 2 oxygen total?

Answer 8

\(\sf Na_2OH\) is wrong because valency of OH and Na is 1. So it will be NaOH. The complete reaction will be

\(\sf Na_2O+H_2O\Rightarrow 2NaOH\)

Answer 9

Oh ok
