What does SODIC mean in Scrabble?
adjective
technicalchemistry
Containing sodium, or affected by an unusually high level of it, as in certain soils and minerals.
Sodic is used most precisely in soil science, where a sodic soil holds enough sodium to disrupt its structure, making the ground swell, drain poorly, and resist plant root growth. Agricultural scientists distinguish sodic soils from merely saline soils, since the two problems require different treatments even though both involve excess salts. In chemistry more broadly, sodic can describe any mineral, compound, or rock notably rich in sodium compared with related forms. Because of its precise scientific use, sodic appears mainly in technical writing about soil, geology, and chemistry rather than in everyday speech.
