Question

Complete the following word equation and write balanced molecular equations for the same : $\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{oxide}+\mathrm{water}\to$

Answer 1

Word Equation: Sodium oxide reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide solution.

• $\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{oxide}+\mathrm{water}\to \mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{Hydroxide}\left[\mathrm{Caustic}\mathrm{soda}\right]$.

Balanced Molecular Equation :

• ${\mathrm{Na}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{s}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)\to 2\mathrm{NaOH}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)$
