So it's called Sodium.Sodium's symbol, Na, comes from the neo-Latin name for a common sodium compound named natrium, which comes from the Greek nítron, a natural mineral salt whose primary ingredient is hydrated sodium carbonate. The difference between the English name soda and the abbreviation Na comes from Berzelius' publication of his system of atomic symbols in Thomas Thomson's Annals of Philosophy

null vote, They are the same. think scientific names for species. we call them different things, but their correct designation is the latin scientific name. Same idea here. So, latin Natrium = common day Sodium.

It's sodium.
For natrium:
Hope that clears things up!
P.S. I must note, this is common usage. Natrium is the technical name still used in some languages, but sparingly in mainly-English speaking countries.

A sodium compound. Like salt. That's what that seems to say. Although that could just be typical unclear Wikipedia stuff. I did think it was just the latin name though.NooBesT[FiN] wrote:

I agree, Latin is dead, but you can't argue with the fact they are synomyms. I am simply saying it's a matter of two words describing the same thing.surgeon_bond wrote:
