Iodized salt is not an element. It is a mixture of at least two compounds:

  1. sodium chloride (roughly 99.9% by weight), these are cubic shaped crystals.
  2. sodium iodide (roughly 0.1% by weight), these are elongated prism shaped crystals.
  3. it may also include other salts like potassium chloride, potassium iodide, sodium bromide, etc. in small amounts

Are iodide and iodine the same thing?

I'm not sure quite what you're trying to ask, because table salt generally is iodized salt. In any event, salt is iodized not for any reason to do with cooking or baking, but because of people's nutritional needs. That means you can substitute sea salt, iodized salt, non iodized salt, etc. all for each other in both cooking and baking. You probably get plenty of iodized salt through processed and canned goods, fast food, etc. so don't worry on that score.
