The mass of reactants and products for the reaction is this:

- 92 g Na, 32 g O₂, 124 g Na₂O

which is not a choice from the list.

Explanation:

4 moles of Na reacts with 1 mol of oxygen to produce 2 moles of sodium oxide.

Na = 23 g/m

4 moles are (4. 23) = 92 g

O₂ = 32 g/m

It's a diatomic molecule (each O is 16 g/m)

Na₂O = 62 g/m

2 mol of sodium oxide will be (2.62) = 124 grams

The mass of reactants and products for the reaction is this:

- 92 g Na, 32 g O₂, 124 g Na₂O

which is not a choice from the list.
