Answer 2

Symbols of sodium, copper and magnesium are Na, Cu, Mg respectively.

• All the chemical elements in the periodic table have their own unique symbols, which are used for the standardization of the chemistry language, and to write the names of the elements in short/simple way.
• The sodium, copper and magnesium also have their own symbols, which are already mentioned above.
• There are different principles for the derivation of these symbols.
• Sodium's symbol Na is derived from it's own Latin name "Natrium".
• Copper's symbol Cu is similarly derived from Latin word "Cuprum".
• On the other hand, magnesium's symbol Mg is derived from it's own name. "Ma" symbol isn't used in the cases of magnesium and manganese, as the starting two letters are similar in both cases. That's why, First and third letters are used in these cases (Mg, and Mn). In this way both element got it's unique identity.
