We learned about Metals & Its Reactivity Series .
Sodium (Na) is considered a very reactive metal and it will reacts vigorously when added into water.
Video below shows the “mini explosions” that occurs when a small piece of sodium is added into a large basin of water.
Alternatively, you can check out this specific link to this youtube video.

31|Aug|2008 2Hey Terence,
Good try but your suggested answer is not the correct one.
Come on..think about it and try again…
Metal + Water –>> A__________ + H2
PS: Try it again!

hey Terence,
Well Done. Spot On!
Are you doing Pure Chemistry or Combine Science (Chem)?
I will be conducting a public Chemistry Workshop on Redox & Electrolysis for Pure Chemistry students. Join me if you are not able to score well in Redox and/or Electrolysis yet. Btw, you need to know Electrolysis well, cos it comes out almost every year.
All The Best To Your Academic Success in Chemistry,
Sean
Master Trainer
