Na and K are both alkali metals in group 1A of the periodic table.

Both of these elements do not handle oxygen well, and react violently when they come in contact with it.

Both Na and K can form +1 cations (Na+ and K+).

They can both be used to form salts when used in ionic acid-base reactions.

Potassium chloride ("dieter's salt") has a similar taste to sodium chloride (regular salt), without the drawbacks of sodium.
