What are the different types of salts in chemistry?
Answers
Hey !!
SALTS ARE OF THE FOLLOWING TYPE
Simple Salts :- These salts are obtained by the complete neutralisation reaction of acids and bases. Eg:- NaCl , KCl , BaCl₂ , CaCl₂ etc.
Acidic salts :- Salts having replaceable H-atom are known as acidic salt. These are formed due to incomplete neutralisation reaction.
Example :- NaHSO₄ , NaH₂PO₄ etc.
Basic Salts :- Salts having replaceable OH group are known as basic salts. These are also formed due to incomplete neutralisation reactions.
Example :- Ca(OH)NO₃
Double Salts :- In these salts two or more normal salts are present in a molecule in crystalline state.
Example :- Mohr's salt ===== FeSO₄ . (NH₄)₂SO₄ . 6H₂O
Potash Alum ====== K₂SO₄ . Al₂(SO₄)₃ . 24H₂O
Carnallite ====== KCl . MgCl₂ . 6H₂O
Mixed Salts :- In these salts more than one type of cations or anions are present. Eg:- NaKSO₄ . Ca(OCl) Cl, Mg (NH₄) , PO₄ etc.
Complex Salts :- Complex salts retain their identity even when dissolved in water. Eg:- When ferrous sulphate solution and potassium cyanide solution are mixed together, K₄[Fe(CN)₆] is formed.
FeSO₄ + 6KCN -----> K₄[Fe(CN)₆] + K₂SO₄
Good luck !!
