Lithium and potassium has same properties as sodium.They are alkali metals.They are placed in group-1.The elements of the same group have same chemical properties. Li and K are the elements above and below Na in the period. So they have same properties as sodium.
Chlorine ,Bromine and Iodine have same chemical properties as Fluorine.
Because they have similar electron configurations.
Potassium - K
Its due to their location on the table. Lithium and sodium are in the same family, (column) so they have similar properties. Sodium is not in the same family as magnesium, so their properties differ slightly
Sodium has similar properties as lithium.
Sodium has similar properties as lithium.
Na is chemically more like Li than Mg, only physically (measurements, mass) it looks more like Mg
1. Sodium, lithium, potassium

The key difference between sodium and sodium chloride is that sodium is a chemical element whereas sodium chloride is a compound containing both sodium and chlorine chemical elements.
Lithium has similar properties with anything in Group 1 on the periodic table.
No other element has the exact same properties as sodium, but the three with the most similar properties would most likely be lithium, potassium, and rubidium.
