Here's the problem:
Sodium oxide is mixed with water to form the metal base.
Please help. You don't need to balance it, I can do that!

I never worked w sodium oxide, but it would probably still give off hydrogen like the metallic sodium to form hydroxide ion.
Never mind above. I like previous answers by aunders and flori.

IF YOU PUT SODIUM IN WATER YOU ARE GONNA HAVE PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!!!!1
but the equation is as follows
Na + H20 --> NaOH + OH +H2
sodium hydroxide(NaOH) is the metal base

sodium oxide - NaOH
water - H2O
NaOH + H20 ----> NaH
NaH is d metal base

Na2O + H2O -> NaOH. Left side is balanced, so all you have to fix is the right side.

first of all sodium doesnot form sodium oxidie even if it is formed it will be very unstable.
I dont know what metal base Sodium will form!!!!!!!
sodium is unstable on in its own i think it is stored in kerosene i am not sure this is my remote knowledge

Please, metal base is no chemical compoung, no chemical formula. You are looking for the impossible.
