so basicaly in the presence of oxygen sodium metal will react with this kind of salt(just called "chloride"?) to form sodium chloride and sodium oxide and water(sodium hydroxide at the end right?) and without oxygen it will form sodium chloride and sodium hydride?.
i meant to the hydrochloride salt, does sodium metal can react with some hydrochloride salts to form NaH?. if so it can work with the presence of oxygen?
so it reacts with both HCl gas and salts?. and what about the reaction itself? it will produce enough heat to burn the sodium hydride? i readed in wiki that this substance is extremely flammable.
i know that sodium react with hydrochloric acid to form sodium chloride and(according to what i readed) free hydrogen. but i also readed in wikipedia that sodium hydride is made by the direct reaction of liquid sodium with hydrogen. so sodium hydride can be formed in good proportion by passing...
