No they are not. For starters, their names are different. Secondly, in one molecule of sodium chloride (NaCl), there is one atom of sodium to each chloride atom. In sodium hydroxide (NaOH), there is one sodium atom, one oxygen atom, and one hydrogen atom. Sodium chloride is known as salt, and sodium hydroxide is known as lye, or caustic soda.

Is sodium chloride and ammonium chloride the same?
No
Why do dry sodium chloride the solutions of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride all impart the same color of the flame?
The (yellow) sodium color is the same in all.
Is sodium chloride same as chlorhexidine?
Sodium chloride and chlorhexidine are very different compounds.
Is the compound sodium chloride the same as the element chloride sodium or the element chlorine?
No. Sodium chloride is quite different from either of its component elements.
Is sodium chloride the same as carbon dioxide?
Sodium chloride is NaCl. Carbon dioxide is CO2.
Why do halite and sodium chloride have the same chemical formula?
Because halite is also sodium chloride.
Is common salt and sodium chloride the same?
yes, common table salt is sodium chloride.
Is salt the same as sodium?
No, salt is not the same as sodium. Salt is sodium chloride, not just sodium by itself.
Is Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate the same as Sodium Chloride?
Definitely not :-)
Are Sodium Chloride 0.9 percent and Normal Saline the same solution?
Sodium chloride 0.9 percent and normal saline are not quite the same solution. While they share the same osmolality, sodium chloride contains more salt.
Is sodium chloride 250 cc the same as sodium chloride 250 ml?
Yes, these volumes are equivalent.
Why do sodium chloride and the solutions of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride all impart the same color flame?
The color is from sodium, not from Cl or Nitrate - NO3.
