A salt is formed by the reaction of an acid and a base in a neutralization reaction. When a salt is dissolved in water a solution is formed. ... Salts from strong bases and weak acids are basic. And finally, salts of weak bases and strong acids are acidic. hope it helps pl mark me as the brainliest if you want

In chemistry, a salt is an ionic compound that can be formed by the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. Salts are composed of related numbers of cations (positively charged ions) and anions (negative ions) so that the product is electrically neutral (without a net charge). These component ions can be inorganic, such as chloride (Cl−), or organic, such as acetate (CH
3CO−
2); and can be monatomic, such as fluoride (F−), or polyatomic, such as sulfate (SO2−ISalts can be classified in a variety of ways. Salts that produce hydroxide ions when dissolved in water are called alkali salts. Salts that produce acidic solutions are acidic salts. Neutral salts are those salts that are neither acidic nor basic. Zwitterions contain an anionic and a cationic centres in the same molecule, but are not considered to be salts. Examples of zwitterions include amino acids, many metabolites, peptides, and proteins.Salts are formed by a chemical reactionbetween:

A base and an acid, e.g., NH3 + HCl → NH4Cl

A metal and an acid, e.g., Mg + H2SO4 → MgSO4 + H2

A metal and a non-metal, e.g., Ca + Cl2 → CaCl2

A base and an acid anhydride, e.g., 2 NaOH+ Cl2O → 2 NaClO + H2O

An acid and a base anhydride, e.g., 2 HNO3+ Na2O → 2 NaNO3 + H2O

Salts can also form if solutions of different salts are mixed, their ions recombine, and the new salt is insoluble and precipitates (see: solubility equilibrium), for example:{\displaystyle {\ce {{Pb(NO3)2}+ Na2SO4 -> PbSO4(v) + 2NaNO3}}}

Strong salt

Strong salts or strong electrolyte salts are chemical salts composed of strong electrolytes. These ionic compoundsdissociate completely in water. They are generally odourless and nonvolatile.

Strong salts start with Na__, K__, NH4__, or they end with __NO3, __ClO4, or __CH3COO. Most group 1 and 2 metals form strong salts. Strong salts are especially useful when creating conductive compounds as their constituent ions allow for greater conductivity.
