Solid and pure NaCl is a common primary standard for standardizing AgNO3 solutions. However, this is only one of its many uses.

NO2- is a weak oxidizing agent. I came across this reaction, but, to be honest, I've no idea about its application:

2 NO2- + 4 H30+ + 3 I-  ->  2 NO + 6 H2O +  I3-

This reaction produces pure iodine in the lab
2NO2(-) + 4H30(+) +  2I(-)  ->  2NO(g) + 6H2O +  I2(s)

NaCl can be used for obtaining HCl
NaCl + H2SO4 = NaHSO4 + HCl(g) (RT)
NaCl + NaHSO4 = Na2SO4 + HCl9g) (when warming)

or chlorine with H2SO4 and KMnO4, or K2Cr2O7, or MnO2, or Pb3O4
