Colored salts generallly have a cation from which section of the periodic table?

Coloured salts generally have a cation which is a transition metal. Iron, Chromium, Manganese, Vanadium and Copper all are examples of transition metals that make colourful salts. Notice that there are exceptions - particularly the period 6 main group metals like lead share some of the properties of the transition group metals and can make colourful salts - the bright yellow precipitate of lead iodide (PbI) is an example commonly used as demonstration of precipitation reactions.


Who reacts with metal bases or acids?

Metal oxides are basic in nature and react with acids to form salts and water. Non-metal oxides are acidic in nature and react with bases to form salts and water. Metals generally react with acids to form salts and hydrogen gas.


Are calcium gluconate magnesium sulfate and potassium phosphate heavy metals?

No, calcium gluconate, magnesium sulfate, and potassium phosphate are not heavy metals. They are inorganic salts commonly used in pharmaceuticals and medicine for various purposes. Heavy metals typically include elements like lead, mercury, and cadmium.


Does metal react with bases to produce salts?

Yes, metals can react with bases to form salts through a process called neutralization. The metal hydroxide and the base react to form a salt and water. The salt formed will depend on the specific metal and base involved in the reaction.


The gas evolved when metals react with dilute acids?

When metals react with dilute acids, hydrogen gas is evolved. This is because metals displace hydrogen from the acid, resulting in the formation of metal salts and hydrogen gas as a byproduct. The reaction can be represented as metal + acid → metal salt + hydrogen gas.

Compare and contrast the reaction of alkaline earth metals with their salts?

All alkaline earth metals and their salts are reactive and they have a blue-print that identifies them as an alkaline earth metal but metals exist as metals, and salts as salts, with different structural compounds.


Does lead have acid and can it melt metal?

Lead is a metal. Metals react with acids to form salts. Metals can be used to make alkalies, but not acids.


What family often forms salts?

Metals form salts often.


What elements are known for forming salts?

Common elements that form salts include metals such as sodium, potassium, and calcium, as well as non-metals such as chlorine, sulfur, and fluorine. Salts are typically formed through the combination of a metal and a non-metal through ionic bonding.


What salts are soluble?

Those salts which can dissolve in water.because water is a solvent and salts are solute.


Why are halogens known as salts?

Halogens are not salts but they are chemical elements; halogens can form salts reacting with metals.


Which metals are extracted by electrolysis of their molten salts?

Aluminum and magnesium are the two metals in greatest volume that are produced by electrolyzing their molten salts.


What are the types of salts that make up human and other vertebrate blood?

Blood contain - as traces - organic salts of metals (Na, Fe, Cu, Zn etc.).


Are all salts of the earth alkaline metals soluble in water?

Not all salts of the earth alkaline metals are soluble in water. Alkaline metal salts like lithium and sodium salts are generally soluble in water, while salts of heavier alkaline earth metals like calcium and barium may have limited solubility in water.
