yes, all salts are formed from an acid and a base. More specifically, all salts are made from a metal and a nonmetal.

What is the difference between acid salt and normal salt?

Well, darling, acid salts are formed when a base reacts with an acid, resulting in a product that still has some acidic properties. Normal salts, on the other hand, are formed when an acid reacts with a base, resulting in a neutral compound. So basically, one is a sassy hybrid of an acid and a salt, while the other is just a chill neutral compound.


Are all salts neutral in nature?

Salt can be neutral, acidic, or basic. Salts are formed through the reaction of an acid and a base. If the reaction involves a strong acid and a strong base, the resulting salt is neutral (like NaCl table salt). A weak acid and a strong base result in a basic salt, and a strong acid and a weak base form an acid salt.


Do all salts form neutral solutions with water?

No, all salts do not form neutral solutions with water. The pH of the solution formed by a salt depends on the combination of the cation and anion present in the salt. Salts that contain a cation or anion that is acidic or basic can result in acidic or basic solutions when dissolved in water.


Will there be a reaction if all reactants and possible products are aqueous while no insoluble salts precipitate are formed?

There will be no reaction if all the reactants and possible products are aqueous while there is no insoluble salts precipitate that are formed.


Do all neutralization process neutral salts is produce?

Neutralization reactions (combination of a base and an acid) will always produce a salt and water, with salt meaning any ionic compound that isn't an oxide.

What are all the type of salts?

Salts are the products of a reaction between a base and an acid.


What is the difference between ions and salts?

1. Salts are products of a neutralization reaction between an acid and a base. 2. Ions are formed by dissociation of salts, bases, acids dissolved in water.

How salts are different elements?

Salts are compounds formed from the reaction between an acid and a base. They are a type of ionic compound where the positively charged ion (cation) comes from a base, and the negatively charged ion (anion) comes from an acid. Salts have different properties and chemical compositions depending on the elements that make up the cation and anion.


How you can identify salt as electrolyte or non electrolyte?

I don't think you will find many non-electrolytic salts. Salts are formed by Acid-Base neutralization reaction. There are four possible types of reactants involved based on their dissociation strengths. i.e. 1.Strong acid and Strong base (Eg HCl and NaOH) 2. Strong acid and weak base (Eg HCl and NH4OH) 3. Weak acid and strong base (Eg HCOOH and NaOH) 4. Both weak acid and base (Eg HCOOH and NH4OH) In all the cases, neutralization takes place to form salts. And surprisingly, the salts formed i.e., NaCl, NH4Cl,HCOO-Na and H-COO-NH4 respectively, irrespective of the strengths of the reactants are found to be strong electrolytes.


Does carbonic acid form acid salts?

All acids form salts


Is a sodium fatty acid salt the same as a carboxylic acid salt?

Yes, a sodium fatty acid salt is a type of carboxylic acid salt. Fatty acids are carboxylic acids with long hydrocarbon chains, and when they react with a base like sodium hydroxide, they form carboxylic acid salts such as sodium fatty acid salts.

What is the name of salt for hydrochloric acid?

The salt formed from the reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and a base is called a chloride salt. For example, when hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), the resulting salt is sodium chloride (NaCl), commonly known as table salt. Chloride salts are formed when the hydrogen ion (H+) from the acid combines with the hydroxide ion (OH-) from the base.


What is an acid reacting with a base called?

All acids react with bases. The reaction is called neutralisation reaction. Mostly ionic salts are produced and water.


Is ammonium sulfate an acid or base?

No it is not. Examples of Acids, Bases, Alkali and Salt. Hydrochloric Acid is an Acid. All Acids end with the word "Acid" Copper (II) Oxide is a base. All bases end with the word "Oxide" Copper (II) Hydroxide is an Alkali. All Alkali end with the word "Hydroxide". An alkali is basically a soluble base. The rest would be salts. In this case, Ammonium Chloride is a salt.
