ApplicationSodium iodide (chemical formula NaI) is an ionic compound formed from the chemical reaction of sodium metal and iodine. Under standard conditions, it is a white, water-soluble solid comprising a 1:1 mix of sodium cations (Na+) and iodide anions (I−) in a crystal lattice.  It is used mainly as a nutritional supplement and in organic chemistry.  It is produced industrially as the salt formed when acidic iodides react with sodium hydroxide. Sodium iodide, as well as potassium iodide, is commonly used to treat and prevent iodine deficiency. Iodized table salt contains 10 ppm iodide.
Sodium iodide is used for conversion of alkyl chlorides into alkyl iodides.
