Talk:Sodium

Thermal Conductivity Questionable
The value given for thermal conductivity, 142 W/(m-k), is very different from the values given by Fink and Leibowitz in "Thermal and Transport Properties of Sodium Liquid and Vapor" (ANL-95/2), for example, 87.22 W/(m-k) at 400K, 54.24 W/(m-k) at 1000 K.... See page 182. If the value given is for the solid, not the liquid, this needs to be explicit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Van.snyder (talk • contribs) 23:11, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Enormous typo
"Bulk sodium is sometimes stored in oil or under and inert gas, which are the conditions it is usually stored in."

Please change from (from Latin natrium) to (from Latin natrium). We may not know what Latin is. 2001:EE0:4BC9:11A0:C19F:C86:76EB:92C7 (talk) 10:52, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

Add pronunciation of sodium to make readers understand. 2001:EE0:4BC9:4070:C19F:C86:76EB:92C7 (talk) 12:39, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Change the current source code to (from Neo-Latin natrium). Open the source dialog to know what code I used. 2001:EE0:4BC4:4240:71D2:A29:A5C4:100E (talk) 14:01, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
