This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.
  • few sodium rich non water soluble compounds (analog to the high water solubility of nitrides on the complementary oxoacid side)
  • use of sodium to make insoluble compounds soluble (in mining)

Misc

  • Chemical gardens: [1]
    Adding metal salts to an aqueous solution of sodium silicate (otherwise known as waterglass) or potassium silicate.
    In a double displacement reaction the newly formed metal silicate falls out while the newly formed sodium salt becomes even more suluble and thus stays in solution.
