An element in group 1, such as sodium, will want to "hook up" with an element in group 17 (halogens) to form an ionic bond, gain a full outer shell, and become unreactive. Sodium will transfer an electron to the halogen to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Totally different compounds. Glycerol doesnt have any nitrogen whereas glycine does for example. Glycine is 1 of the 20 amino acids that make up proteins. look at them in wikipedia. Glycerol (C3H8O3) , glycine (C2H5NO2)
