Sodium dihydrogen phosphate is an 'acid' because it is able to produce hydrogen ions when dissolved in water. It is also a 'salt' as it is an ionic compound and is formed when a hydrogen atom of the phosphoric acid is replaced by a metal ion (Na+).

Is trisodium phosphate the same as tripotassium phosphate?
Depends on the context. Technically, phosphorus is an element (P), and phosphate is a molecular anion (PO4_3-), part of phosphoric acid (H3PO4). In (medical) diagnostic testing, they're often used interchangeably, sometimes called "inorganic phosphorus." It's also an essential plant nutrient, so on fertilizers you'll see the phosphorus content expressed as a percentage (by weight) measured as P2O5, the anhydride of phosphoric acid.
What contains phosphate DNA or RNA?
Both ! Both are made of nucleotides : phosphate-ribose-nucleic acid. The strands are made by the linkage of phosphates on riboses : P-ribose-P-ribose-P-ribose-P-ribose-etc. The difference between DNA and RNA is that the ribose molecule is dehydrated (DNA) or not (RNA). DNA means DeoxyriboNucleic Acid RNA means RiboNucleic Acid
Is phosphorus a liquid or gas?
It is NEITHER at standard temperature and pressure. The pure element (which is practically never found in a pure form) is a white/yellow waxy solid, or a red amorphous solid, or a black powdery solid. But it does form both liquid and gaseous compounds at room temperature.
Does aluminium react with acid?
Aluminium is amphoteric which means that it displays some of the properties of both acids and bases, it will react with some bases, such as Sodium Hydroxide and also with some Acids such as concentrated Nitric Acid
What is the chemical formula of Sodium Bromate?
Sodium Bromate(NaBrO3) and Sodium Bromide(NaBr) should both form bromine when sulfuric acid is added, however Sodium Bromide will not oxidize itself while Sodium Bromate will. With sodium bromide, youd also have to add an oxidizer to get bromine to form. Ive used both hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate.
Is sodium phosphate basic acidic or neutral?
it is both a salt and an acid
Which salt reacts with both HCI and HaOH?
There is are no such things as HCI or HaOH I think you mean HCl (with a lowercase L) and NaOH (with an N) What you are looking for is a partially neutralized salt of a polyprotic acid. Some possible salts include: sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3 potassium dihydrogen phosphate, KH2PO4 lithium hydrogen phosphate, Li2HPO4 sodium hydrogen oxalate NaHC2O4 The metal ion doesn't matter much.
What is sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid the same as?
Sodium hydroxide is a base and hydrochloric acid is an acid. Both are not same.
Is barium nitrate and sodium phosphate soluble salts?
Both of these salts are soluble in water.
Can lactic acid sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid be mixed together?
yes but sodium hydroxide will be neutralized by one or both acids
What do both lactic-acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentaion produce?
Both alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation produce pyruvic acid (pyruvate), as an intermediate substance.
Is sodium bicarbobate an acid?
Sodium bicarbonate is generally considered a base. Technically, however, it is an amphoteric substance, meaning it can act as both an acid an a base.
Does sodium nitrate solution with dilute hydrochloric acid make sodiumsulphate?
How it is possible ? both reagent do not contain sulphate ions, sulphuric acid may form sodium sulphate with sodium nitrate.
In a reaction between Sodium Bicarbonate NaHCO3 and Hydrochloric acid HCl how would the results vary if Nitric Acid was used instead of Hydrochloric acid?
Carbon dioxide wille be evolved in both cases. With hydrochloric acid, sodium chloride is formed; with nitric acid, sodium nitrate is formed

What is the name of the acid H2Se in water?
H2S by itself as a gas is hydrogen sulfide or dihydrogen monosulfide (both are considered correct), and it's a foul-smelling gas emitted by decaying organisms and volcanoes. Bubble it through water, and it becomes hydrosulfuric acid.
What are the products of sodium nitrate and nitric acid?
Nothing, because both have the common anion.
