Allowing a solution of sodium in liquid ammonia to stand
The reaction that does not liberate hydrogen is allowing a solution of sodium in liquid ammonia to stand. Sodium dissolves in liquid ammonia to form a deep blue solution containing solvated electrons and sodium amide (NaNH2). The solvated electrons are responsible for the blue color and strong reducing power. Hydrogen gas is not directly liberated in this process. The other reactions listed produce hydrogen gas:
