When water reacts with sodium (Na) in rocks, particularly in the context of geological processes, the reaction generally involves the formation of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (Hâ‚‚).
In more specific terms, if we consider that sodium is a component of certain minerals (like feldspar), the overall weathering process can lead to the extraction of sodium ions from these minerals into solution, where sodium ions can then react with water to form sodium hydroxide.
If you were looking for a specific context, such as a natural process or a laboratory experiment, please provide more details!
