Solution

The balanced chemical equation is an equation where the number of atoms of different elements on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of the elements present on the product side of the reaction.
It provides quantitative information about that reaction.
It also indicates the molecular proportion of substances in the reaction.
In the given equation Na₂O₂ + H₂O $\to$
Here sodium peroxide (Na₂O₂) reacts with water (H₂O) giving sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and oxygen (O₂).
The balanced equation is
2 Na₂O₂ (s) + 2H₂O(aq) ⇢ 4NaOH (aq) + O₂(g)
Hence the products formed are sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and oxygen(O₂).
