Question

Name some basic salt and their formations

Answer 1

A basic salt is an ionic compound that can be formed by the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base.[1] 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 (CH3CO−2); and can be monatomic, such as fluoride (F−)
, or polyatomic, such as sulfate (SO2−4).

Salts are formed by a chemical reaction between:

A base and an acid, e.g., NH3 + HCl → NH4ClA metal and an acid, e.g., Mg + H2SO4 → MgSO4 + H2A metal and a non-metal, e.g., Ca + Cl2 → CaCl2A base and an acid anhydride, e.g., 2 NaOH + Cl2O → 2 NaClO + H2OAn acid and a basic anhydride, e.g., 2 HNO3+ Na2O → 2 NaNO3 + H2O
