Write the reaction equation for the interaction of dilute nitric acid with sodium, make up the electronic balance

Write the reaction equation for the interaction of dilute nitric acid with sodium, make up the electronic balance, indicate the oxidizing agent and reducing agent.

The more dilute the acid, the deeper the reduction product 10HNO3 (dil.) + 8Na = 8NaNO3 + NH4NO3 + 3H2O
N (+5) – + 8e – N (-3) | 1
Na (0) – -1e – N (+1) | 8
HNO3-reducing agent due to N in the oxidation state (+5)
Na-oxidizing agent due to Na with oxidation state (0)
