    Which of the following statements is incorrect?

    A)  Pure sodium metal dissolves in liquid ammonia to give blue solution

    B)  NaOH reacts with glass to give sodium silicate

    C)  Aluminium, reacts with excess NaOH to give \[Al{{(OH)}_{3}}\]

    D)  \[NaHC{{O}_{3}}\] on heating gives\[N{{a}_{2}}C{{O}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Aluminium being amphoteric reacts with aqueous alkalies with the evolution of H2 gas. \[2Al(s)+2NaOH(aq)+6{{H}_{2}}O(l)\] \[\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2N{{a}^{+}}{{[Al{{(OH)}_{4}}]}^{-}}(aq)+3{{H}_{2}}(g)\uparrow \] sodium tetrahydroxoaluminate (III)
