Can you use lye to preserve eggs?

Yes, lye can be used to preserve eggs in a process called "water glassing." To do this, mix lye with water to create a solution, then submerge the eggs in the solution inside a non-reactive container. This method helps extend the shelf life of eggs by several months when stored in a cool place. However, it is important to handle lye with caution as it is a caustic substance.

Why doesn't metallic sodium exist in nature?

Sodium like all alkali metals is very reactive and will combine with almost anything. For example if metallic sodium were exposed to water (and earth is covered with water) it would rapidly react with the water, becoming lye (NaOH) and free hydrogen gas (H2) by the formula: 2Na + 2H2O ---> 2NaOH + H2 This lye would then react with other things as it is also very reactive.
