उत्तर

Alkali metal sodium when reacting with water gives a chemical compound sodium hydroxide. When sodium hydroxide is treated with aluminium oxide gives a soluble compound sodium aluminate.

Hence, A is sodium, B is sodium hydroxide and C is sodium aluminate.

`"Al"_2"O"_3("s") + 2"NaOH"("aq") -> 2"NaAlO"_2("aq") + "H"_2"O"("l")`
