When sodium metal is added to water, an orange flame is observed on the metal surface. based on this observation, what can best be concluded

Explanation:

A property which causes change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a chemical property. For example, reactivity, toxicity, combustion etc.

Whereas a property which causes no change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical property. For example, mass, volume, density etc.

Sodium is a very reactive metal and it reacts readily with oxygen, water etc. So, when sodium is added to water then occurrence of an orange flame represents its reactivity.

Thus, based on given observation it can be concluded that chemical reaction takes place when sodium is added to water.

the answer i belive is c

Explanation:

A chemical reaction occurs because heat and light are given off.
