Sodium is a very highly reactive metal:contact with water or anything containing water would release hydrogen gas which could ignitecontact with anything containing fatty acids (e.g. human skin) would turn the fatty acids to soapscontact with air would cause oxidation of the sodium and release of hydrogen gas (there is water vapor in air)If released hydrogen ignited the sodium metal would melt and run into things!!!etc.
