Answer 1

Li(s) + H2O(l) -----> LiOH(aq) + H2(g)

Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) ---------------> Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)

Step-by-step explanation:

Metals react with water to yield the metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas as shown in the answer above.

The reaction equations were balanced, the number of atoms of each element on both side of the reaction equation is exactly the same.

This is the way to write a balanced reaction equation for the species shown in the question.
