Question

Is sodium considered acidic or basic?

Answer 1

Answer:

Strong Acids. Keep in mind that a salt will only be basic if it contains the conjugate base of a weak acid. Sodium chloride, for instance, contains chloride (Cl–), which is the conjugate base of HCl. But because HCl is a strong acid, the Cl– ion is not basic in solution, and it isn't capable of deprotonating water.

Answer 2

Answer:

Sodium isn't acidic or basic.

Explanation:

Sodium isn't acidic or basic because it's an element and elements cannot be classified as acid or base.
