When sodium reacts with water hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide are produced
Reaction of Sodium and Water

Purpose To observe the reactivity of a metal
with water

Demonstration Only a tiny piece of sodium was used
since the reaction is exothermic and also produces hydrogen gas, too much heat would cause the hydrogen to explode
• 2H2 + O2 2H2O
As the metal reacted, it hissed on a cushion of hydrogen gas
The sodium hydroxide produced caused the indicator to turn pink

Concepts1. Metals
2. Bases
3. Reactions of Metals

1. Metals Most of the elements of the Periodic
Table are metals Metals have common properties
shiny maleable ductile electrically conductive
Some metals are more reactive than others
Group IA metals are the most reactive

2. Bases A base is a substance that
produces hydroxide ion when dissolved in water
Common bases are hydroxides of Group IA and Group IIA metals
LiOH lithium hydroxide
NaOH sodium hydroxide
KOH potassium hydroxide
Mg(OH)2 magnesium hydroxide
Ca(OH)2 calcium hydroxide

3. Reactions of Metals Metals commonly react with acids
Metals of Group IA react with the very weak acid, water
Metal + H2O Metal hydroxide + H2
Reaction of a Group IA metal with water gives a metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas

Conclusions Sodium was more reactive than
other Group II metals Sodium was so reactive that it
reacted with water Group IA metals such as sodium
are the most reactive metals When Group IA metals reacted with
water hydrogen gas was produced in addition to a metal hydroxide

Comments This demonstration is an example of a
redox reaction which is a double replacement reaction
Na + H-OH NaOH + H2
sodium metal has oxidation number of zero but ends up as 1+
hydrogen in water has oxidation number of 1+ but ends up as zero in hydrogen gas
Magnesium is a Group IIA metal that will not react with water but will react with acids
