Best Answer

If you mix pure sodium with water, it will explode into flames. This doesn't happen in the ocean because it is a mixture of water (H2O) and salt (NaCl).

If you digest too much sodium, you can die of a very severe skin rash.

Did you know that every year people consume 100,000,000 tons of sodium compounds?
