How much sodium is in the Oceans?
As PURE sodium, practically none. But a good part of all sodium in the world is in the oceans- in the form of sodium chloride- salt. The total amount would be in the billions of tons. Seawater is about 3.5% salt.
Where are sodium mines?
Sodium is not mined. At least not a sodium. Sodium metal is highly reactive, and as such, it is not found free in nature. It will be found in conbination with another or other elements. The most common form in which we see sodium is as halite or sodium chloride, which is table salt. And there are salt mines in a number of locations around the world. If we are recovering sodium metal for some reason, we can melt salt (sodium chloride) and separate it through an electrochemical process. But we have to cool and store the sodium carefully. Even the moisture in air can (and will) react with sodium.
Where is the element sodium usually found in the world?
The element sodium is present in the sea in the compound sodium chloride(NaCl) or salt. Also soda lakes like lake Bogoria in the Great rift valley contain very high amounts of sodium hence the name soda lakes.
What is the name for NaClO4?
sodium chlorateNaClO3 = Sodium Chlorate
What chemical form is sodium mined?
Sodium isn't exactly mined. Sodium in its pure substance cannot be found freely in the environment. Sodium must go through a process of electrolysis (the process of shooting an electrical current through a substance) to break down the sodium compounds into pure sodium. These sodium compounds are found in multiple places. They can be found in the ocean, coal/salt mines, and many other places. In fact about 2.6% of the Earths crust is made up of sodium compounds.
How does sodium affect the world?
It will destory the world's apples !!

What type of scientists use sodium chloride?
Sodium Chloride is used by many scientists all over the world. Infact, we even use it on a daily basis! Sodium Chloride is known as NaCl or even Salt!

What are the most widespread deficiencies in the world?
Sodium deficiency (hyponatremia ) and water deficiency are the most serious and widespread deficiencies in the world.
Which mineral is dissolved in greatest abundance in the world's oceans?
Sodium. (seawater has approximately 35 g/L of dissolved salts: predominantly sodium (Na+ ) and chloride (Cl− ) ions)
How was Sellite made during World War 2?
Sellite (solution of sodium sulfite) was produced by burning sulfur to yield sulfur dioxide, followed by reaction with sodium carbonate.
