What is Simple salts ? Give its types.

Answer»

The salts formed by the neutralisation process between acid and base. 

These are of three types:

(i) Normal salt : 

(i) The salt formed by the loss of all possible protons (replaceable H+ ions) 

Ex: NaCl, NaNO3, K2SO, Ca3 (PO4)2, Na3 BO3, Na2 HPO3, NaH2 PO2 etc. 

(ii) Acid salts : 

(i) Salts formed by incomplete neutralisation of polybasic acids. Such salts contain one or more replaceable H atom. 

Ex: NaHCO3 , NaHSO4 , NaHPO4, Na2 HPO4 etc. 

(ii) Above salts when neutralized by base form normal salts. 

(iii) Basic salts : 

(i) Salts formed by in complete neutralisation of poly acidic bases are called basic salts. These salt contain one or more hydroxyl groups. 

Ex: Zn(OH)Cl, Mg(OH)Cl, Fe(OH)2 Cl, Bi(OH)2 Cl etc. 

(ii) Above salts when neutralised by acids form normal salts.
