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.
Mineral salts are compounds made up of ions derived from minerals, and they are not a family of elements themselves. Elements are the simplest substances made up of only one type of atom, such as oxygen, sodium, or iron. Mineral salts are formed when certain elements combine with each other to create specific compounds, like sodium chloride (table salt) or calcium carbonate.
No, salts are not elements. Salts are ionic compounds composed of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions) that are held together by electrostatic forces. These ions can be composed of different elements from the periodic table.
It is not recommended to dissolve these salts; they are elements for the clinical analysis.
Sulfide ions (S2-) combine with cations of group 1 elements (e.g. Na+, K+) and certain group 2 elements (e.g. Ca2+) to form soluble salts. In general, sulfide salts of alkali and alkaline earth metals are soluble in water.
Group 1 elements, such as sodium and potassium, are used in various applications including making soap, fertilizers, and as components in alloys. Group 7 elements, such as chlorine and fluorine, are used in disinfectants, water treatment, and as components in materials like PVC and Teflon.
Metals 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.
No, salts are not elements. Salts are ionic compounds composed of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions) that are held together by electrostatic forces. These ions can be composed of different elements from the periodic table.
Halogens are not salts but they are chemical elements; halogens can form salts reacting with metals.
Epsom salts is magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, which has three elements: magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen.
