"liquid sodium, whose boiling point is more than 8 times higher than water’s"
Ew, multiplicative temperature comparisons in unspecified units.
Sodium's boiling point is 882'C.
"so it can absorb all the extra heat"
Confusion of temperature and heat? Sodium's specific heat capacity is ~1/3 of water, so sodium's higher boiling point doesn't by itself mean that it can absorb more heat, though ofc the combination is still in sodium's favour.
