Because pure sodium in it's basic form is actually a metal. Chemistry is a study of the Elements and how they form to make compounds. The elements are the basic chemicals and are found listed in a chemical chart. Before the chemicals were discovered and understood and then named, people gave them simple or everyday names like "salt", "vinegar" and other type names.

Why the sodium chloride is named as NACL?

In the case of NaCl.the valency of sodium and chloride is two.so you dont have to specify it.but where as in Icl the valency different so you call it as iodine monochloride.to denote the presence of single chloride atom. Sodium chloride is an ionic compound, so you don't write 'mono' 'di' 'tri' etc. in the name. MgCl2 would simply be magnesium chloride, not magnesium dichloride. Covalent compounds such as ICl sometimes have 'mono' 'di' or 'tri' in their name, but ionic compounds don't. == == == == == ==
