The family that combines with metals to form salts is the halogen family. There are other nonmetals that can be mixed with metals to form salts, but halogens are the most common.
halogens
They combine to form salts.
Salts are chemical compounds not elements.
Practically all elements form salts.
All metals form salts.
It is not recommended to dissolve these salts; they are elements for the clinical analysis.
Metals form salts.
They combine to form salts.
water and acid
If the elements are both non-metals, they form a molecular compound. If they are both metals, they form a metallic bonds. If they are a metal and a non-metal they form ionic bonds (salts). (Ammonium salts are non-metals.)
Sodium and chlorine combine to make the most common salt, sodium chloride. It should be noted though, that many different elements can combine to make many different salts.
The majority of elements, and especially metals form salts.
Practically all chemical elements can form salts.
Salts are chemical compounds not elements.
Halogens form salts by combining with metals. Halogens are in the 17th group of the periodic table. Sodium chloride,Potassium iodide are some examples.
Salts are chemical compounds not elements.
Practically all elements form salts.
Epsom salts is magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, which has three elements: magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen.
