Go find out get some dust and find some sodium and have fun kiddos
Well, sodium is a metal so it could be both. [depends on phase]
You could try dosing with Sodium Hypochlorite
Sodium silicate is nothing but Sand . So the source of sodium silicate in earth crust. The main use of sodium silicate is to make glass.
No, because sodium chloride isn't alkaline; you could use sodium hydroxide instead of potassium hydroxide (lye) but sodium chloride wouldn't work very well.
only thing i could find is that the atomic number is the same
aka table salt? you can find it in any grocery store, or probably in your kitchen
Almost everywhere, it is hard not to find food (especially processed food), without sodium in it. However, good sources of sodium could include fish and nuts, which are also loaded with plenty of healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
sodium found mosly from salt.
1. By determination of sodium and chlorine. 2. Using a salinometer.
You could melt Sodium chloride and use electrolysis to separate the Sodium and the Chlorine, which is how Sodium is produced on an industrial scale.
Pure sodium is reactive, in a rather violent way. Any free sodium that could exist naturally would have reacted so as soon as it came into existence. It is unstable, and can only be stable as a compound with other elements like chlorine (sodium chloride).
Sodium bicarbonate is baking soda. You find baking soda at the grocery store.
To find naurally occurring sodium is all but impossible because it reacts violently with water. You can, however, find plenty of sodium chloride (table salt) with little difficulty.
For example in nitrates as: sodium nitrate, potassium nitrate, uranyl nitrate, ammonium nitrate, etc.
Sodium is found in the Earths crust!! But i don't know about the ocean!! And Sodium is salt!!
Seawater is a good place to find Sodium.
