Sodium, periodic table Na, is a solid metal. It has 11 protons, and its most common isotope is Na23, with 12 neutrons.
Sodium[1] should be present in many salts and minerals on the surface of Mars, and has been detected by the rovers (reference needed).
Sodium represents 0,2% of the composition of the human body. It is therefore an important requirements for a Martian settlement.
