Consider a diagram showing the redox reaction of sodium (Na) converting into Na⁺ ions. Which half-reaction is correctly represented by this process?
A
2 Na (s) → 2 Na⁺ (g) + 2e⁻
B
Na (g) + e⁻ → Na⁺ (s)
C
Na⁺ (g) + 2e⁻ → Na (s)
D
Na (s) → Na⁺ (g) + e⁻
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT context describes the oxidation of sodium as 2 Na (s) converting into 2 Na⁺ (g) with the release of 2 electrons, which matches option A.
