Hi everyone. So we're asked when sodium hydride is dissolved in water and hydroxide and hydrogen gas are formed were asked to give the balanced chemical reaction for the reaction. The sodium hydride is N. A. H. Solid and water. It's HT L liquid. My name had Jackson. It's in A. H. Aquarius and hydrogen gas Is H. two. Yes. So for the reaction N. A. H solid Plus H two L. My point and it's gonna your N. A. O. H. Chris plus H. Two. Yes. Sophie bounces. We have sodium hydrogen and oxygen on both sides. We have one stadium over here, three hydrogen one oxygen one. Study them over here. Three hydrogen one oxygen. So this is balanced. Thanks for watching my video and I hope it was helpful.

The solar power striking Earth every day averages 168 watts per square meter. The highest ever recorded electrical power usage in New York City was 13,200 MW. A record established in July of 2013. Considering that present technology for solar energy conversion is about 10% efficient, from how many square meters of land must sunlight be collected in order to provide this peak power? (For compar- ison, the total area of New York City is 830 km2.)
