What is the definition of sodium amalgam?
Sodium amalgam is a compound formed by the reaction of sodium with mercury, resulting in a homogeneous mixture. It is used in organic chemistry as a reducing agent and in organic synthesis reactions. However, it is highly reactive and toxic due to the presence of mercury.
What are the differences between mercury and sodium?
Mercury is liquid at room temperature. Sodium is highly reactive with many materials. Mercury is highly toxic to most life forms, sodium is used by many life forms (including us)
What is NaHg?
It is an Amalgam of sodium and mercury. Not a Compound or a Mixture.
In terms of composition what is the second most prominent element on Mercury Hydrogen Nitrogen Sodium Carbon?
Sodium
Is there any alkali metal in table salt?
Table salt is sodium chloride; sodium is a metalic element and chlorine is a non-metallic element.Table salt is sodium (an explosive metal) combined with chlorine (a poisonous gas). Sodium is Na; Chlorine is Cl. So table salt is NaCl.This element is sodium (Na).This element is sodium (Na).
Name five different metals?
gold,siliver,mercury,calcium,sodium
What do you get when you mix sodium chloride with Mercury?
Mercury will not react with sodium chloride

What is Mercury's atmosphere mad of?
Mercury's atmosphere is mainly made out of sodium.
What is mercury is made of what?
Mercury's atmosphere is MAINLY made up of sodium

What happens if you use a mercury source instead of sodium vapour lamp in diffraction grating experiment?
sodium vapour lamps produce much higher light output (about 90 lumens/watt) they cannot be used in lighting applications where colour-rendering property is very crucial. This is because most of the light emitted from a sodium vapour lamp is concentrated in the yellow part of the visible spectrum (around 580-590 nm) On the other hand, a mercury vapour lamp is quite suitable for lighting applications. This is because, the mercury vapour lamp can feed almost the entire visible region (380-780 nm) of the human visual system.
How is the atmosphere of earth and Mercury alike and different?
Both Earth and Mercury have atmospheres, but they are very different. Earth's atmosphere is dense and rich in oxygen, suitable for supporting life. Mercury has a very thin exosphere composed mainly of oxygen, sodium, hydrogen, and helium, which is not conducive to sustaining life.
What is molecular formula of sodium amalgam?
Sodium amalgam is an ALLOY of sodium with mercury. It is not a chemical compound and does not have a molecuar formula.
What is the balanced formula for mercury nitrate and sodium chloride?
Mercury Nitrate: Hg(NO3)2 Sodium Chloride: NaCl
Can sodium and mercury exist in monoatomic molecule in vapour state?
No, sodium and mercury exist as diatomic molecules in the vapour state due to the nature of their chemical bonding. Sodium forms Na2 while mercury forms Hg2 molecules.
What are the similarities between mercury and sodium?
they are both metal
