▶ Salts are prepared by reacting an acid with a metal or a base, such as a metal carbonate, hydroxide or oxide. The acid provides the non-metal ion for the salt, e.g. chloride or sulphate or nitrate ions. The metal or base provides the metal ion for the salt, e.g. sodium or copper.
▶Insoluble salts can be made by precipitation reactions. In this method, solutions of two soluble compounds are mixed, and an insoluble salt forms along with a soluble product.
