Question

state difference between neutral, acidic and basic salts. Give an example of each

Answer 1

neutral-acids react with bases to form salt and water
acids- acids give out H+ ions
bases - bases give out OH- ions
salts - the crystals

Answer 2

Properties of Acids:

They are corrosive in nature.

They are good conductors of electricity.

They have pH less than 7.

They react with bases and undergo neutralization reaction i.e., acids form salt and water upon reaction with a base.

Properties of Bases:

They are soapy when touched and bitter in taste.

When used in aqueous state they are good conductors of electricity.

they have ph value > 7

Neutral Substances: There are some substances that do not have acidic as well as basic characteristics. These kind of substances are known as neutral substances. Neutral substances do not affect a litmus paper.
