Question
what is the net ionic equation for NaH + H2O= NaOH +H2
Answers
DrBob222
NaH + HOH ==> NaOH + H2
Convert to an ionic equation.
Na^+ + H^- + HOH ==> Na^+ + OH^- + H2
Now can the ion(s) common to both sides, in this case it is the Na^+. The net ionic equation remains.
H^- + HOH ==> OH^- + H2 and you can do it up professionally if you want to add the "state" lettering.
H^-(aq) + HOH(l) ==> OH^-(aq) + H2(g)
