Sodium is a common element with a not-so-common effect on our lives. Most of us think of common table salt when we hear the word "sodium," but this book shows that it's much more than that! This lively book takes us through the discovery of sodium, and why it has its place on the periodic table. It then explores the atomic makeup of sodium, as well as how it reacts and combines with other elements. Finally, where and how it is used is explored in detail.
