Actually its neither, sodium is formed by pressure from the earths crust that creates sedimentary particles, the particles then are made into sodium by "affliction".
It is also a basic element. See attached link.
This is a chemical reaction, a chemical change.
Melting is a physical process; reaction with sodium is a chemical process.
Sodium and bromine are chemical elements, not properties; the chemical reaction between sodium and bromine is a chemical process, not a property.
It is a physical change. The sodium hydroxide dissolves, but it is still sodium hydroxide.
Dissolution is considered a physical process.
No, mixing sodium polyacrylate with water is a physical interaction rather than a chemical reaction. The sodium polyacrylate absorbs the water, forming a gel-like substance, but no new chemical bonds are formed.
It is a physical change because the reaction can easily be reversed and no heat is involved.
Sodium metal being insoluble in ether is a physical property, not a chemical reaction. This is because no new substances are being formed, it is simply a case of the sodium metal not dissolving in the ether due to differences in polarity.
Mixing copper sulfate and sodium carbonate would be considered a chemical reaction because a new substance is formed as a result of the reaction between the two compounds, resulting in the formation of copper carbonate and sodium sulfate.
The reaction of sodium metal with water to produce hydrogen gas is a chemical property. This is because a new substance (hydrogen gas) is formed as a result of a chemical reaction between sodium and water.
The reaction between iron (III) chloride and sodium hydroxide is a chemical change as new substances are formed. Iron (III) hydroxide and sodium chloride are produced as a result of the reaction.
The reaction of sodium with water is a chemical property because it involves a chemical change where new substances are formed (sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas) with different properties compared to the original substances (sodium and water). Physical properties, on the other hand, are characteristics of a substance that can be observed without changing its chemical composition.
