Sodium is a SOFT,SILVERY AND HIGHLY REACTIVE METAL and cannot stay free in nature.It needs to be extracted from Sodium Hydroxide(Caustic Soda) and/or Sodium Chloride(Common Salt) by Castner Process.It has never been heard of to be made artificially.

Is neon a nonmetal metal or artificially made?
Neon is naturally found non-metal
Is Solid sodium chloride is a good conductor of electric current?
yes, because it is an ionic compund, made of the ionic bond of sodium and chloride. an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal and sodium is a metal while chloride is a nonmetal.
Is Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal?
Salts are made of metal ions and nonmetal ions.
How are the salts named?
Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal are named this way: [metal] [nonmetal root]-ide Examples: sodium + chlorine = sodium chloride potassium + iodine = potassium iodide Salts made from a metal or other complex cation and a nonmetal or other complex anion are named based on the cation and anion names: ------------------------------- ammonium ion + hydroxide ion = ammonium hydroxide sodium ion + hypochlorite ion = sodium hypochlorite calcium ion + chloride ion = calcium chloride
Does a reaction of a metal and a non-metal form a base or an acid?
Neither. It's a salt which is formed from a neutralization reaction. For example, NaCl (sodium chloride) is table salt. It is made from a metal (sodium) and a nonmetal (chlorine).
Is matter made of metal or nonmetal?
No.
A compound made of a metal and a nonmetal is a?
Usually an ionically bonded salt. For Study Island~ binary ionic compound When a metal and a nonmetal react, they produce a binary ionic compound since metals are electropositive in nature and nonmetals are highly electronegative. If the compound contains an elemental metal and nonmetal, the formula is predictable. The metal will donate an electron to the nonmetal and form a binary ionic compound. For example, sodium metal reacts with chlorine gas to form solid sodium chloride. Na (s) + Cl2 (g) NaCl (s)
Is all matter made of metal or nonmetal?
No.
What is in sodium metal?
Sodium metal is pure sodium and is made of sodium atoms.
How much of sodium is found in the nature?
if you look for sodium in nature you wont find any because sodium is artificially made
Is a pencil a nonmetal?
The lead of a pencil is made mostly of the nonmetal carbon but the rest of the pencil is neither metal nor nonmetal (except for the bit of metal near the eraser) because it is not an element.
What are common objects made from metal and nonmetal?
i dont know stupid
