Room Temperature常温特性

Soft silvery metal that can be cut with a knife. Reacts violently with water, producing hydrogen gas and heat.

柔软的银白色金属,可用刀切割。遇水剧烈反应,产生氢气和热量。

Did You Know? 你知道吗?

Sodium was first isolated by Humphry Davy in 1807 using electrolysis. It is so reactive that it must be stored in oil to prevent it from reacting with air or water.

钠由汉弗莱·戴维于1807年通过电解法首次分离。钠极其活泼,必须保存在油中以防与空气或水反应。
