how many salts in chemistry explain a little bit about salts?

Answer:
The different types of salts are: normal salt, acid salt, basic salt and double salt pls make Branilist pls
Answer:
A salt is formed in a neutralisation reaction between an acid and a base. Salt is a general term used for the substances that are formed when an acid and a base react with each other.
A salt is formed in a neutralisation reaction between an acid and a base. Salt is a general term used for the substances that are formed when an acid and a base react with each other.This reaction is called a neutralization reaction.
Acid + base → salt + water
A salt is an ionic compound consisting of a cation such as a metal ion or an ammonium ion from a base and an anion from an acid.
The different types of salts are: normal salt, acid salt, basic salt and double salt.
- . Normal salt : A salt that does not contain any replaceable hydrogen atoms or hydroxyl groups is called normal salt.
- Acid salt : When a polybasic acid is not completely neutralized by a base, the salt produced will contain replaceable hydrogen atoms. Hence, it may further take part in the reaction with the base as an acid. Such a salt is called an acid salt.
- Basic salt : When a polyacidic base reacts with lesser amount of acid than is necessary for complete neutralization, the salt produced contain hydroxyl group(s) (OH) also. Such a salt is called a basic salt.
- Double salt : In a double salt, there are two different negative ions and/or positive ions. For example, the mineral dolomite, CaCO3·MgCO3, contains both Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions. Hence, it is a double salt. Potash alum, K2SO4·Al2(SO4)3.24H2O, also is a double salt.
