What are the chemical formula for salt?

Answer 1

The chemical equation is 'NaCl'.

However, in chemistry, a 'salt' is any metal cation and any acid radical anion. So something like CaCO3 ( Calcium carbonate) is a salt.

In every day terms 'salt' is the white crystalline powder used in food preparation. which is NaCl . 'Na' is the sodium cation (Na^+) and the chloride 'Cl' is the acid radical anion (Cl^-) .

Answer 2

Chemical Equation For SaltSalt is Sodium Chloride so: NaCl.

The word equation for salt is:

Sodium + Chlorine = Sodium Chloride

OR

The chemical equation is:

Na + Cl = NaCl

Answer 3

The chemical formula for salt is NaCl (Sodium Chloride).

Na has a +1 charge (Na+1). Cl has a -1 charge (Cl-1).

*Since they both have a charge of 1, the formula is balanced.

Answer 4

The chemical formula of table salt is NaCl (sodium chloride).

Answer 5

Salt water is a mixture, not a compound. There is water, H2O, and there is salt, NaCl.

Answer 6

it is base + acid ---> Salt + water (+carbon dioxide)

Answer 7

Acid + Base = salt + water

Acid + active metal = salt + hydrogen gaas

Answer 8

As salt is a compound of sodium[Na] and chlorine[Cl] its chemical formula is NaCl.

Answer 9

NaCl (Sodium Chloride)

Answer 10

HCl
