What else can I help you with?
Are salts acidic or alkaline?
i believe salts are neither, as they are classified as a mineral
Why can substances be classified as salts?
Salts are the products of a reaction between an acid and a base.
What chemicals are classified as salts?
Salts are the products of a reaction between a base and an acid.
How would perspiration which contains salts be classified?
It is a solution.
Which pair of compounds can be classified as inorganic?
water and salts Organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen bonds. Both nucleic acids and proteins contain these. Water (H2O) and salts (ex: NaCl) do not.
When water molecules interfere with the ionic bonds of salts this process is called?
This process is called hydration. Water molecules surround and break the ionic bonds of salts, causing the salt to dissolve in water.
How many groups can be classified salts?
Salts are products of reactions between acids and bases. Examples: nitrates, chlorides, sulfates, acetates, iodides, formiates etc.
What are Most carbon-based molecules classified?
Most carbon-based molecules are classified as organic molecules. Organic molecules are composed primarily of carbon atoms bonded to other atoms, such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and others. These molecules are the building blocks of life and are found in all living organisms.
What are membrane forming molecules classified as?
Molecules that make up lipid bi layers are classified as amphipathic, meaning they have both hydrophobic and hydrophillic properties.
What type of salt is endothermic?
Endothermic salts are typically double salts that contain water molecules within their crystal structure. These salts require energy input to break the bonds holding the water molecules, resulting in an endothermic reaction. An example of this is hydrated copper(II) sulfate, which turns from blue to white when heated due to the loss of water molecules.
Are salts and other important ionic molecules of the body covalently bonded?
yes?
Why is water able to dissolve salts such as sodium chloride?
Both have polar molecules.
