Na is chemically more like Li than Mg, only physically (measurements, mass) it looks more like Mg
The properties of sodium are similar to the properties of potassium.
Sodium is similar to lithium.
lithium
Mg(OH)2 + H2SO4 -> MgSO4 + 2H2OLooks like magnesium sulfate.
Sodium is a very reactive chemical element.
most metals are metallic in a way. the periodic table consists of 3 different types of elements metals, non metals and metalloids the most metallic are the metals because they posses the most metal like properties.
There are actually three transition metals with only one ionic charge.The three are...Silver(Ag) plus one chargeCadmium (Cd) plus two chargeZinc (Zn) plus two charge

Na is chemically more like Li than Mg, only physically (measurements, mass) it looks more like Mg
The key difference between sodium and sodium chloride is that sodium is a chemical element whereas sodium chloride is a compound containing both sodium and chlorine chemical elements.
Combustible metals like Aluminum, Magnesium, Lithium, Sodium, Copper, Ext.
Calcium is most like magnesium in its chemical bonding properties, with beryllium close behind. These are the elements respectively below and above magnesium in column 2 of a wide form periodic table.

Lithium is the 3rd element in the Periodic Table. It is an alkali metal (like Sodium and Potassium). It was first given the name "lithos", which in Greek means "stone", as it was discovered in a mineral; as opposed to sodium and potassium, which were discovered in plant tissue. Its name was later standardized as "lithium".
Each element has similar properties to the other elements in its group on the periodic table. Sodium is an alkali metal, and those are the elements in Group 1 of the periodic table of elements. We know that lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium all have similar chemical properties.

Its the group of salts belonging to the sodium family (i.e. having Sodium- Na in them ), like NaCl - Common salt or Sodium Chloride Sodium Family- all salts having sodium in them (composition) ex. Nacl (sodium) Bile salt
