Answer 1

When water reacts with sodium in rocks, the products typically formed are salt solution and clay minerals. This reaction is often part of the weathering process of rocks that contain feldspar, which alters to clay minerals in the presence of water and can release sodium ions into solution. Therefore, the correct response is:

salt solution and clay minerals.
