can u mention me 5 acidic salts , 5 basic salts and 5 neutral salts ?
I can get you started but I don't want to take away all of your fun.
acidic: NH4Cl
neutral: NaCl
basic: CH3COONa(sodium acetate).
no i really need 5 of each category i mentioned above
Yes, I know, but we help you do your homework. We don't do it for you. I thought if I gave you NaCl for a neutral salt that you would catch on that NaCl, NaBr, NaI, KCl, KBr, KI, LiCl, LiBr, LiI, NaNO3, KNO3, LiNO3, and so on into the night would be the same kind of salt. Salts of strong acids and strong bases give neutral solutions when hydrolyzed in water.
Certainly! I can provide you with a list of some common examples of acidic salts, basic salts, and neutral salts. However, please note that there are numerous salts categorized under each of these types.
1. Acidic Salts:
- Ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4
- Sodium bisulfate (NaHSO4)
- Potassium hydrogen tartrate (cream of tartar) KHC4H4O6
- Aluminum sulfate Al2(SO4)3
- Iron(III) chloride hexahydrate FeCl3·6H2O
2. Basic Salts:
- Sodium carbonate (washing soda) Na2CO3
- Calcium carbonate (chalk) CaCO3
- Magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)2
- Barium hydroxide Ba(OH)2
- Potassium carbonate K2CO3
3. Neutral Salts:
- Sodium chloride (table salt) NaCl
- Potassium chloride KCl
- Calcium sulfate CaSO4
- Lithium chloride LiCl
- Zinc sulfate ZnSO4
To identify acidic, basic, or neutral salts, you can determine the acidity or basicity of the anions (negatively charged ions) present in the salt. If the anion is derived from a weak acid and is not fully neutralized, it can make the salt acidic. Conversely, if the anion is derived from a weak base, it can make the salt basic. If neither of these conditions applies, the salt is considered neutral.
