kondaur [170]3 years ago

The scientific meaning of salt is an ionic compound that is formed when an acid and a base reaction take place and is neutralized.
The common meaning of salt (table salt) is specifically the organic mineral of sodium chloride (NaCl) and is digestible.
Ionic salts are often not digestible (or not commonly digested, anyway)

What is meant by ion and salt
Neko [114]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>Ion</u>

Ion is a charged particle.

A neutral atom contains equal number of positive protons and negative electrons

When an electron is lost or gained the atom becomes a charged particle which is called as an ION.

For example  

Na is an atom which contains 11 electrons and 11 protons(= to atomic number)

When Na loses an electron it will have 11 positive proton and 10 negative electron and Thus, Na will become Na^+, a charge particle which we call it as sodium ion.

Cl is an atom which contains 17 electrons and 17 protons(= to atomic number)

When Cl loses an electron it will have 17 positive proton and 18 negative electron and Thus, Cl will become Cl^-, a charge particle which we call it as chloride ion.

When an ion is positively charged it is called as a cation

When an ion is negatively charged it is called as an anion.

Salt is formed when an acid reacts with a base.

The cation of the base combines with the anion of the acid to form the salt.

$Acid+Base>Salt+water

HCl is acid and NaOH is a base forms salt NaCl and water.

Cl^- is an anion of the acid and Na^+ is the cation of the base combines to form NaCl salt .

H^+and OH^- combines to form H_2 O

Which feature is shared by all three-carbon monosaccharides?
Orlov [11]

They are all pentoses. In their linear forms, they all contain carbon carboxyl and several hydroxyl functional groups. In their linear forms, they all contain a carbonyl and several hydroxyl functional groups.

Carbon is a chemical element with the symbol C and atomic number 6. Carbon is a non-metal and is tetravalent. That atom donates four electrons to form a covalent chemical bond. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic table. Carbon makes up only about 0.025% of the Earth's crust.

Carbon is used in some form in almost every industry in the world. It is used as fuel in the form of coal, methane gas, and crude oil (used to make gasoline). It is used to make all sorts of materials, including plastics and alloys such as steel (a combination of carbon and iron). Carbon is also found in fossil fuels such as petroleum (crude oil), coal and natural gas. Carbon is also found in dead, decaying animals and animal waste soils. Carbon is stored in the biosphere of plants and trees.

Which graph represents what happens to the solubility of baco3 as hno3 is added?
slavikrds [6]
If we have in mind the following procedure:
BACo3(s) + H +1  -> Ba +2  + HCO3 -1
CO3 - 2 + H+1 -> HCO3  -1 
As nitric acid is added then {CO3 -2 } decreases meaning that more BaCo3 can dissolve. The graph you need to use is the one that the curve goes down and closer to solubility and goes up on conc.
