Which do you predict is more commonly found in nature-the element of sodium or sodium bound into compounds such as sodium chloride?

Sodium is highly, highly reactive, so it will always be found in nature combined with some other element. This is true for all alkali and alkali earth metals (the 2 rightmost columns on the Periodic Table, minus hydrogen).

What element is natron?
Natron is not an element. It is a mixture of compounds: sodium carbonate decahydrate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium chloride and sodium sulfate.
What are examples of inorganic compounds?
Inorganic compounds are any compounds that do not contain the element carbon (C) as one of their constituent elements. For example, salt, which is sodium chloride (NaCl) is a compound that doesn't contain carbon, so it is inorganic.
Is sodium atom in nature?
Yes, sodium is an element that can be found naturally in the Earth's crust and in many minerals. It is a highly reactive metal and is commonly found in compounds such as sodium chloride (table salt) and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).
What element forms more compounds than any other element and compounds containing it are called organic compounds?
uranis has the most compounds
Is an element a solid form of a substance?
Elements and compounds can be solids, liquids, or gases. Examples of elements that are solid, liquid and gaseous at room temperature respectively are iron, bromine, and helium. Examples of compounds in these states are sodium chloride, water, and carbon dioxide.
Is oxygen more commonly found as an element or in compounds?
in an element
What do all the compounds that end in chloride have in common?

What element is part of both of the non-flammable compounds in the table?
sodium chloride (salt)
Is sodium and chlorine a compound?
Sodium is an element. Chloride is an element. Sodium and chlorine combine to form the compound sodium chloride which is commonly known as the table salt.
Are Fe and NaCL elements or compounds?
Fe is the element iron and NaCl is the compound sodium chloride.
What element is natron?
Natron is not an element. It is a mixture of compounds: sodium carbonate decahydrate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium chloride and sodium sulfate.
What element is commonly used when forming long chains of atoms?
Carbon, these are called organic compounds.
When do you use roman numerals in an element?
we usually use roman numerals in writing names of compounds of transitional elements which have more than one valency . for example we have two compounds of iron chloride , iron(II)chloride and iron(III)chloride depending on the valency of iron in each compound.
What element do all chemical compounds contain?
A compound has two or more elements that are chemically combined. It cannot be easily separated which means that is a homogeneous. An example of this would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl.) :)
