2Na(s) + FeCl3(aq) -> 2NaCl(aq) + Fe(s)
In this reaction, sodium metal (Na) donates electrons to iron chloride (FeCl3), causing iron (Fe) to be reduced from +3 oxidation state to 0 oxidation state and form elemental iron (Fe). Simultaneously, sodium atoms lose electrons and become positively charged sodium ions (Na+). These ions combine with chloride ions (Cl-) from iron chloride to form sodium chloride (NaCl).
Therefore, the products of the reaction between sodium metal and iron chloride are sodium chloride (NaCl) and elemental iron (Fe).
