1-Take some sodium, some chlorine gas, and some sand. (The amount of the salt you'll get will be as same as the sodium you used)

2-Put the sand and the chlorine in a lab glass. (Preferably Florence of Erlenmeyer type)

3-Cut a piece of sodium and put it in. (Not a huge piece, it's gonna make an exothermic reaction, that means it's gonna BURN!)

4-Drop some drops of water on the sodium, cover the flask and back up. (FAST!)

5-Wait for the reaction to happen. It's gonna burn for a little while.

6-You have your salt.

2Na(s)+Cl2(g)=2NaCl(s)
