Can sodium combine with other elements?

Yes, it can, and it combines with many other elements. The most common example is sodium chloride, ordinary table salt.


Which element is a gas that does not combine with other elements?

The noble gases in group 18 of the periodic table do not usually form compounds with other elements. Under very unusual circumstances in the laboratory, chemists have forced many of these elements to actually make compounds but none of the noble gases make compounds under normal conditions.


How many covalent bonds does argon form?

Argon is a noble gas and is known to be chemically inert, so it typically does not form covalent bonds. It exists as single atoms and does not readily bond with other elements.


What are the the elements in ordinary fertilizer?

Many different elements and compounds are used in varying proportions as plant fertilizer. The 6 main elements used are: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sulfur (S) Seven others elements are also used as "micronutrients": boron (B), chlorine (Cl), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), and zinc (Zn). A compound that is commonly used in agriculture as a "high-nitrogen" fertilizer, is ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3).


How many elements have been found to occur in nature?

There are currently 118 elements, ranging from #1 Hydrogen to #118 Ununoctium. Many of the transuranium elements (#93-#118) are synthetic, meaning that the only place they have been found is in a laboratory, thus do not exist in nature. Technetium (#43) and Promethium (#61) are also synthetic.
