2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) --> 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
2Na(s) + 2HCl(g) --> 2NaCl(s) + H2(g)

2Na+ + 2H2O + 2eâ â H2 + 2NaOH
So you'll get Sodium hyrodxide , and hydrogen.
2 Na + 2 HCl ---> 2 NaCl + H2
You'll get Sodium chloride (common salt), and hydrogen

All the above answers look good, but I find it helps me to think of the ions involved:
Na+ + H+/OH- --> Na+/OH- + H+
and
Na+ + H+/Cl- --> Na+/Cl- + H+
They're both simple ionic swaps (although the sodium/water one is a brutally violent and dangerous reaction since the water bond is not a simple ionic bond).

2Na + 2H2O ------- 2NaOh + H2
Sodium hydroxide and hydrogen
Na + HCl ------- NaCl + H2
(Not balanced) Sodium Chloride and Hydrogen

it goes does,
Na + H20---->NaOH + H
Na + HCL--->NaCL + H
