Balance the equation: "Sodium oxide reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen." I can't find the correct coefficients to balance the equation. I have written my unbalanced equation in the file attached.

So, sodium oxide + water = sodium hydroxide + hydrogen is written Na2O+H2O-->NaOH+H.

To balance the equation it should read NaO+H2O-->2NaOH

Explanation:

Na2O+H2O-->2NaOH+0H2the 0H2 is dropped because there is no value

when the volume of gas is   changed from   717.73 ml   to 852 ml   the temperature will   change   from 315   c to 452   c

    calculation

this is calculated using the charles law formula

that is,   v1/t1 = v2/t2

          v1=?

        t1 = 315 c   into   kelvin = 315 +273 = 588 k

        v2 = 852   ml

        t2 = 425c + 273 =698 k

make v1   the subject of the formula ( by   multiplying both side by t1)

  v1=( v2 xt1) / t2

v1= (852 ml   x 588 k)/ 698 k= 717.73 ml
