Sodium doesn't dissolve in water, it reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen: sodium + water ----> sodium hydroxide + hydrogen
Yes, dissolving sodium hydroxide in water is a physical change.
Two ways: (i) heat it to the melting point of Sodium Hydroxide OR (ii) dissolve it in water.
Is called an alkali. Sodium hydroxide is a typical example.
Salt (sodium chloride) is not soluble in alcohol, but is soluble in water. Nearly all "rubbing alcohol" contains some water, and so will slightly dissolve salt.

I know for a fact that you can mix rubbing alcohol and water, as most rubbing alcohol is a water and isopropyl alcohol solution, but when you mix vinegar and backing soda a gas is produced, so it probably wouldn't mix that well.

Sodium Hydroxide is hydrophilic. It is an ionic compound and will readily dissolve in water forming Na+ and OH- ions.
Sodium hydroxide is a highly caustic material that will dissolve organic materials that commonly clog pipes.

Ethanol and methanol are polar solvents (like water), and so they CAN dissolve many salts.While the carbon chain is nonpolar, the hydroxide chains are polar. Only the alcohols with carbon chains longer than 7 are immiscible. Table salt (NaCl) will dissolve in ethanol, though not as well as in water.
Not really. Ethanoic acid and just about any other acid will react with sodium hydroxide rather than dissolve in it.
