Sagot :

Answer:

 A.    2Na       +    2H₂O   →    2NaOH   +  H₂  

Explanation:

When sodium is reacted with water, a single replacement reaction occurs. The product of the reaction is typically sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Reactants:

        Sodium +  water

Product:

        Sodium hydroxide + hydrogen gas

So;

         2Na       +    2H₂O   →    2NaOH   +  H₂
