Sodium has many common uses. Have you ever put salt on a dish to give it more flavor? You are actually putting on Sodium Chloride (NaCl), a compound of the element. Some of it's other uses are Soda Ash (Na2CO3), Baking Soda (NaHCO3), Caustic Soda (NaOH), Sodium Nitrate (NaNO3), Sodium Thiosulfate (hypo, Na2S2O3 - 5H2O), and Sodium Sulfate (Na2SO4), the sodium salt of sulfuric acid (Keep in mind that these are nowhere close to all the uses of sodium, but some)
