No. Sodium (Na) is a chemical element. Salt is a term we generally apply to table salt, which is sodium chloride (NaCl), a chemical compound formed of one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine. Also note that a salt is also a general term that can be applied to a compound formed of a Group 1 or Group 2 element, an alkali metal or an alkali earth metal (respectively), and a group 17 element, a halogen. There is a nice Periodic Table posted by our friends at Wikipedia, and all the elements are posted by chemical symbol (naturally). Each chemical symbol is a link to the Wikipedia article on that element, so you can surf directly to an element from the periodic table. A link to this periodic table is provided.

Chemical formula of a fluoride atom?

'Fluoride atom'. ???? The fluorine ATOM is 'F' The fluorine molecule is 'F2'. The Fluoride ION is 'F^-' NB When an atom becomes a charged species, it is no longer an atom , but an ION. The suffix '--ide' indicates it is an ion, not an atom. So 'Fluoride atom' is a nonsense. It is either 'Fluoride ion' or Fluorine atom'.
