There are 6 types of salts:
1) Normal salts: The salts formed by the complete replacement of the replaceable hydrogen ion of an acid molecule by a basic radical.
Examples: Sodium sulphate and sodium chloride
2NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2SO4
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O
2) Acid salts: The salts formed by partial replacement of the replaceable hydrogen ion of an acid molecule by a basic radical.
Example: Sodium bisulphate
NaOH + H2SO4 → NaHSO4 + H2O
3) Basic salts: The salts formed by the partial replacement of the hydroxyl group of a di- or tri-acidic base by an acidic radical.
Example:
Mg (OH) 2 + HCl → Mg(OH)Cl + H2O
4) Double salts: The salts formed by the union of two simple salts that dissolve in water and crystallise.
Example:
Potash alum: K2SO4. Al2 (SO4)3. 24H2O
5) Mixed salts: Mixed salts are those salts that contain more than one basic or acidic radical.
Example:
Sodium potassium carbonate NaKCO3
6) Complex salts: Complex salts are those salts which on dissociation give one simple ion and one complex ion.
Example:
Na [Ag (CN) 2]
Na+ + [Ag (CN)2]−
All the salts have various uses in daily life and industries.
