Question

What is the latin name of sodium?
A. Sodiumin
B. Natrium
C. Natrimium
D. Kalium

Answer 1

Hint- In order to solve this question first we will introduce Sodium in terms of its symbol and some chemical properties then we will proceed further by discussing its history and how its symbol was decided and also its latin name.
$Na$

Step -By -Step Solution:
Sodium is an element with a symbol $Na$ and is a member of the alkali metal group. This is colored visually white, which is a low density light metal.
Sodium is a chemical element with the symbol $Na$ and the atomic number.
The sodium chemical symbol derived from its latin name Natrium. $Na$ was drawn from two latin names from the first two lines. Most of the element's chemical name is based on their latin name. Sodium is a highly reactive, light, silvery-white metal. Sodium is a metal-alkali.
Hence, Natrium is the latin name of sodium
So, the correct answer is option B.

Additional Information- A metal is a substance that exhibits a lustrous appearance when freshly washed, polished, or broken, and conducts fairly well in electricity and heat. Generally, metals are malleable, or ductile. Zinc, iron, gold, tin, lead, copper, silver, uranium, aluminum, and titanium are examples of metals. The well-known alloys include steel and bronze.

Note- Simple sodium is not present on Earth naturally, because it is a highly reactive element. The sodium ion is present naturally within oceans, water bodies, and other elements on Earth. It is used for applications in chemical synthesis, research, and heat transfer. Sodium is also a crucial element in animal and plant life by creating gradients of charge and helping to develop energy.
