Sodium Metal

Our Sodium (Na) is available in  1g, 20 g, 50 g, 100g, 250g, 500g quantities, tailored for specialized chemical syntheses and laboratory experiments.

We prioritize quality and transparency. Each batch is verified by FT-IR spectroscopy on our Agilent Cary 630 instrument, with the corresponding spectra included. Sodium is a metal so such a scan is not possible. Instead we utilise other methods of testing to ensure utmost purity

Key Properties:

• Chemical Formula: Na
• Molar Mass: 22.99 g/mol
• Appearance: Silvery-white, soft metal
• Density: ~0.968 g/cm³
• Melting Point: 97.8 °C
• Boiling Point: 882 °C
• Solubility: Reacts violently with water (not applicable as a solute)
  

Utility in the Lab:
Sodium metal is used in the synthesis of various organometallic compounds and as a reducing agent in chemical reactions.

Safety Reminder:
Sodium is highly reactive, especially with water, and must be handled under an inert atmosphere. Always use with extreme caution and appropriate safety protocols.
