What else can I help you with?
Are salts all acids?
No; salts can be acidic, basic or neutral.
Which property do salts have in common?
All salts are ionic compound.
What do salts normally have a PH of?
Water solutions of salts can be neutral, acidic or basic.
How do salts form and why they are neutral?
1. Salts are the products of reactions between acids and bases. 2. Salts in solution can be acidic, basic or neutral.
What is a property of all salts?
it is a base it has a sour taste
Are salts acids?
No; salts can be acidic, basic or neutral.
Do all salts form neutral solutions with water?
All salts are neutral in terms of electrical charge but not necessarily in terms of acidity/basisity. Salts formed by the reaction of a strong acid and a strong base are generally neautral. Examples include sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium nitrate (KNO3) Salts formed by a strong acid and a weak base are acidic. Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) is an example. Salts formed by a weak acid and a strong base are basic, example include sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and lithium carbonate (Li2CO3). Metal hydroxides are also basic salts. Examples include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2
Is NaNO a base?
No, al sodium salts (containing Na+) and all nitrite (containing NO2-) and nitrate (containing NO3-) salts are neutral salts (pH = 7 in solution of these).More overever: NaNO is not an exsisting compound!
Why can the pH of dissolved salts vary?
Because salts can be in water solutions neutral, acidic or basic.
What is meant by normal salts and acid salts?
Normal is not a correct word; some salts have a neutral water solution, pH=7.
Are chlorides negative?
Salts in solid state are neutral.
Is acids a property of salts?
Some salts dissolved in water have an acidic pH.
