Sodium Fluoride (NaF) is made up of one sodium atom (Na) and one fluorine atom (F).
The price for anhydrous NaF, 99,99 %, for chemical analysis is 105 euros/5 g (Sigma Aldrich).
Fluoride itself is just the ion of the nonmetal fluorine. To form a substance it must be combined with a positive ion. In most cases, but not all, this positive ion is a metal. In most dental products contain sodium fluoride, sodium being a metal. Fluoride is sometimes confused with the mineral fluorite, which is calcium fluoride. Calcium is also a metal.

Sodium (Na), and fluorine (F) combine to form sodium fluoride (NaF).
Sodium can be combined with the majority of other elements to form compounds; another chemical element cannot be obtained by chemical reactions.
No. Fluoride is the ion of fluorine with the formula F-. It is commonly found in dental products in the form of sodium fluoride (NaF). Fluorite is calcium fluoride (CaF2), a mineral.
Na is sodium, and Cl is chlorine. They are two elements, and when combined form Sodium Chloride, or table salt. Na is sodium, and Cl is chlorine. They are two elements, and when combined form Sodium Chloride, or table salt.

Chloride ions would form elements with ions of metallic elements. For example, with sodium ions, chloride ions form sodium chloride.

Sodium and Fluorine react to form Sodium fluoride (NaF)
Sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) form to make table salt.
I think you mean IONS. Elements that form IONS by losing or gaining electrons, form IONIC bonds. These form when a metal reacts with a non-metal.
Sodium (Na), and fluorine (F) combine to form sodium fluoride (NaF).
Sodium can be combined with the majority of other elements to form compounds; another chemical element cannot be obtained by chemical reactions.
Sodium and fluorine will form an ionic compound named sodium fluoride with the formula NaF.
No. Fluoride is the ion of fluorine with the formula F-. It is commonly found in dental products in the form of sodium fluoride (NaF). Fluorite is calcium fluoride (CaF2), a mineral.
When two or more elements are chemically combined,they form a compund.Like when you mix hydrogen and oxygen together, the result is H2O(water).When you combine sodium and chlorine,you get NaCl (salt).
