Sodium is not explosive per se, but it will oxidize vigorously if it touches water. And it will react even more powerfully with acid.
Sodium is not radioactive either. It has some radioactive isotopes, but these are not found naturally.
Lastly it is not noxious in that it does not emit noxious fumes. But it would not be a good idea to ingest it in its pure form.

Is iron explosive if combined with another element such as sodium?
no not usually
Sodium Na 11 stable or radioactive?
Sodium Na 11 is a stable element.
Can you use a chemical change to obtain simple substances for sodium?
If you're talking about neutral, elemental sodium, it is possible to ionize it into the charged Na+ nucleus and an electron. Sodium is much too small to undergo radioactive decay into hydrogen or helium.
Why can sodium not be used to make a container in which to boil water?
Sodium is highly reactive with water. If water meets sodium the result is explosive.
What is sodium metals?
Sodium (Na) is an element with atomic number 11. It is often found in a salt form such as Sodium Chloride (NaCl), or in an ionic form (Na+) with an associated anion (Cl-). However, when it is in pure form, only Sodium, nothing else, people refer to it as Sodium Metal. It is very reactive, and will release an explosive mixture of Hydrogen (H2) Gas when mixed with water.
Is the element sodium radioactive or non-radioactive?
non radioactive element
Is iron explosive if combined with another element such as sodium?
no not usually
Sodium Na 11 stable or radioactive?
Sodium Na 11 is a stable element.
What element is the most radioactive lithium sodium or potassium?
All the three elements are generally non-radioactive.
Is sodium an isotope?
Sodium does not have naturally occurring radioactive isotopes - as it has only 1 naturally occurring isotope, which has 11 protons and 12 neutrons, and is not radioactive. However, the 18 other known types of sodium isotopes are all radioactive, and sodium-22 (the most stable radioactive sodium isotope) has a half life of 2.6 years.
What is the constituent element of natrium?
Sodium. Pretty simple. Explosive metal, reacts violently with water, dissolving into sodium hydroxide (lye). NASTY stuff.
Does sodium contain radioactive isotopes?
Sodium has no radioactive isotopes.
Is sodium a molecular element?
A molescular species is informed about the height and power of the radioactive waves which were inferenced by sodiums almighty power
Which element is a non-radioactive solid which sublimes when heated?
sodium lithium carbon iron aluminium lead copper potassium etc.
What is Ns plus 2H2O?
Try another short spelling of the element sodium: Na ! 2Na + 2H2O --> 2NaOH + H2 (explosive gas)
What is an element in sodium?
Sodium is an element.
Is sodium polycrylate explosive?
yes it is
