You could use another word for change can be variable witch means change and if you times the one two more times then you would get four because two time two would be four and times the one would be four.
Answer:
Explanation:
Na react with H2O to form NAOH
2 Na+2H2O....................2NAOH + H2
Ca react with water and form calcium hydroxide
Ca + 2H2O........................Ca(OH)2
Mg react with water and form Magnesium hydroxide
Mg +2H2O .........................Mg(OH)2 however this coating of mg(oh)2 prevent it from further reaction
Fe react with water and form ferric hydride
3Fe +H2O.......................2 FeH +FeO
copper do not react with water
