Answer:
Single Replacement reaction
Explanation:
Reaction Given:
2Na + 2HCI ------> H₂ + 2NaCl
Type of reaction = ?
Solution:
Look at the reactants and products of the reaction to know the type of reaction
2Na + 2HCI ------> H₂ + 2NaCl
In this reaction two reactant combine and give 2 products.
Reactant of the reaction
Na = Sodium
HCl = Hydrochloric acid
Product of the reaction
NaCl = sodium chloride
H₂ = hydrogen gas
So,
That sodium metal react with hydrochloric acid and produce salt and water gas
Type of Reaction:
This is a Single Replacement reaction, in which Sodium metal (Na) replace the Hydrogen (H) of the other compound and form Sodium Chloride salt (NaCl) and hydrogen liberate in the form of gas.
