It is believed to interact via long-range allostery , involving significant protein dynamics . Members of

94-471: A flame test , sodium and its compounds glow yellow because the excited 3s electrons of sodium emit a photon when they fall from 3p to 3s; the wavelength of this photon corresponds to the D line at about 589.3 nm. Spin-orbit interactions involving the electron in the 3p orbital split the D line into two, at 589.0 and 589.6 nm; hyperfine structures involving both orbitals cause many more lines. Twenty isotopes of sodium are known, but only Na

141-423: A phase-transfer catalyst . Sodium content of samples is determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry or by potentiometry using ion-selective electrodes. Like the other alkali metals, sodium dissolves in ammonia and some amines to give deeply colored solutions; evaporation of these solutions leaves a shiny film of metallic sodium. The solutions contain the coordination complex [Na(NH 3 ) 6 ] , with

188-503: A raising agent , and sodablasting . Along with potassium, many important medicines have sodium added to improve their bioavailability ; though potassium is the better ion in most cases, sodium is chosen for its lower price and atomic weight. Sodium hydride is used as a base for various reactions (such as the aldol reaction ) in organic chemistry. Metallic sodium is used mainly for the production of sodium borohydride , sodium azide , indigo , and triphenylphosphine . A once-common use

235-525: A compound of sodium with the Latin name of sodanum was used as a headache remedy. The name sodium is thought to originate from the Arabic suda , meaning headache, as the headache-alleviating properties of sodium carbonate or soda were well known in early times. Although sodium, sometimes called soda , had long been recognized in compounds, the metal itself was not isolated until 1807 by Sir Humphry Davy through

282-524: A corner of our 60 m room farthest away from the apparatus, we exploded 3 mg of sodium chlorate with milk sugar while observing the nonluminous flame before the slit. After a while, it glowed a bright yellow and showed a strong sodium line that disappeared only after 10 minutes. From the weight of the sodium salt and the volume of air in the room, we easily calculate that one part by weight of air could not contain more than 1/20 millionth weight of sodium. The Earth's crust contains 2.27% sodium, making it

329-563: A high affinity for the sodium ion; derivatives of the alkalide Na are obtainable by the addition of cryptands to solutions of sodium in ammonia via disproportionation . Many organosodium compounds have been prepared. Because of the high polarity of the C-Na bonds, they behave like sources of carbanions (salts with organic anions ). Some well-known derivatives include sodium cyclopentadienide (NaC 5 H 5 ) and trityl sodium ((C 6 H 5 ) 3 CNa). Sodium naphthalene , Na [C 10 H 8 •] ,

376-415: A high neutron flux in the reactor. The high boiling point of sodium allows the reactor to operate at ambient (normal) pressure, but drawbacks include its opacity, which hinders visual maintenance, and its strongly reducing properties. Sodium will explode in contact with water, although it will only burn gently in air. Radioactive sodium-24 may be produced by neutron bombardment during operation, posing

423-463: A nutrient for animals including humans. Sodium is an essential element for all animals and some plants. Sodium ions are the major cation in the extracellular fluid (ECF) and as such are the major contributor to the ECF osmotic pressure . Animal cells actively pump sodium ions out of the cells by means of the sodium–potassium pump , an enzyme complex embedded in the cell membrane , in order to maintain

470-885: A result, sodium usually forms ionic compounds involving the Na cation. Metallic sodium is generally less reactive than potassium and more reactive than lithium . Sodium metal is highly reducing, with the standard reduction potential for the Na /Na couple being −2.71 volts, though potassium and lithium have even more negative potentials.

Sodium at standard temperature and pressure is a soft silvery metal that combines with oxygen in the air, forming sodium oxides . Bulk sodium

611-461: A slight radiation hazard; the radioactivity stops within a few days after removal from the reactor. If a reactor needs to be shut down frequently, NaK is used. Because NaK is a liquid at room temperature, the coolant does not solidify in the pipes. In this case, the pyrophoricity of potassium requires extra precautions to prevent and detect leaks. Another heat transfer application is poppet valves in high-performance internal combustion engines;

Lasers emitting light at the sodium D line are used to create artificial laser guide stars that assist in the adaptive optics for land-based visible-light telescopes. Liquid sodium is used as a heat transfer fluid in sodium-cooled fast reactors because it has the high thermal conductivity and low neutron absorption cross section required to achieve

846-456: Is less electropositive than sodium, no calcium will be deposited at the cathode. This method is less expensive than the previous Castner process (the electrolysis of sodium hydroxide ). If sodium of high purity is required, it can be distilled once or several times. The market for sodium is volatile due to the difficulty in its storage and shipping; it must be stored under a dry inert gas atmosphere or anhydrous mineral oil to prevent

893-531: Is seen in any whose surfaces are cool enough for sodium to exist in atomic form (rather than ionised). This corresponds to stars of roughly F-type and cooler. Many other stars appear to have a sodium absorption line, but this is actually caused by gas in the foreground interstellar medium . The two can be distinguished via high-resolution spectroscopy, because interstellar lines are much narrower than those broadened by stellar rotation . Sodium has also been detected in numerous Solar System environments, including

940-462: Is stable. Na is created in the carbon-burning process in stars by fusing two carbon atoms together; this requires temperatures above 600 megakelvins and a star of at least three solar masses. Two radioactive , cosmogenic isotopes are the byproduct of cosmic ray spallation : Na has a half-life of 2.6 years and Na, a half-life of 15 hours; all other isotopes have a half-life of less than one minute.

1128-469: Is usually stored in oil or an inert gas. Sodium metal can be easily cut with a knife. It is a good conductor of electricity and heat. Due to having low atomic mass and large atomic radius, sodium is third-least dense of all elemental metals and is one of only three metals that can float on water, the other two being lithium and potassium. The melting (98 °C) and boiling (883 °C) points of sodium are lower than those of lithium but higher than those of

1504-689: The aquo complexes [Na(H 2 O) n ] , where n = 4–8; with n = 6 indicated from X-ray diffraction data and computer simulations. Direct precipitation of sodium salts from aqueous solutions is rare because sodium salts typically have a high affinity for water. An exception is sodium bismuthate (NaBiO 3 ), which is insoluble in cold water and decomposes in hot water. Because of the high solubility of its compounds, sodium salts are usually isolated as solids by evaporation or by precipitation with an organic antisolvent, such as ethanol ; for example, only 0.35 g/L of sodium chloride will dissolve in ethanol. A crown ether such as 15-crown-5 may be used as

1551-689: The average person in the United States consumes 3.4 grams per day. The American Heart Association recommends no more than 1.5 g of sodium per day. The Committee to Review the Dietary Reference Intakes for Sodium and Potassium, which is part of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, has determined that there isn't enough evidence from research studies to establish Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) and Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) values for sodium.

In the universe, sodium is the 15th most abundant element with a 20,000 parts-per-billion abundance, making sodium 0.002% of the total atoms in the universe. Atomic sodium has a very strong spectral line in the yellow-orange part of the spectrum (the same line as is used in sodium-vapour street lights ). This appears as an absorption line in many types of stars, including

1645-524: The duodenal lumen. It is primarily responsible for maintaining the balance of sodium . It is also indirectly linked to buffering of blood pH. The NHE3 antiporter imports one sodium ion into the cytosol of a tubule cell as it ejects one hydrogen ion from the cell into the lumen of the proximal tubule. The sodium within the tubule cell may then be retained by the body rather than excreted in the urine. The NHE3 antiporter indirectly contributes to blood buffering capacity because hydrogen ions that are ejected are
