Elements must be written in uppercase first letter, lowercase second. Electrons can be entered as {-} or e. Ions are shown with charge in curly brackets. Compound states are not required
Sodium is highly reactive with air, especially when humidity is high. Liquid sodium can ignite at 125°C, solid sodium burns at 800°C. Sodium reacts with water to form strong base NaOH. Pure sodium absorbs hydrogen at 100°C, forming sodium hydride above 350°C
