How are the salts named?

Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal are named this way: [metal] [nonmetal root]-ide Examples: sodium + chlorine = sodium chloride potassium + iodine = potassium iodide Salts made from a metal or other complex cation and a nonmetal or other complex anion are named based on the cation and anion names: ------------------------------- ammonium ion + hydroxide ion = ammonium hydroxide sodium ion + hypochlorite ion = sodium hypochlorite calcium ion + chloride ion = calcium chloride

All salts are formed from an acid and base?

Salts are formed from the reaction between an acid and a base, where the hydrogen ions from the acid are replaced by metal or ammonium ions. The resulting product is a salt and water. This chemical process is known as neutralization.

What are metallic salts?

Metallic salts are compounds formed by the reaction of a metal with an acid. They are often used in various industrial processes, such as in the production of pigments, dyes, and as catalysts in chemical reactions. These salts can have different properties and applications depending on the metal and the specific anion present.
