12.6.0 Prepare salts
A salt compound is formed when the hydrogen ions in an acid are replaced by metal ions or ammonium ions.
A salt compound is formed by the combination of an acid radical or positive ions with a basic radical or negative ion.
A salt compound is formed by the replacement of all or part of the hydrogen in an acid by a metallic element.
12.6.1 Prepare salts by neutralization of a soluble acid and a base
12.6.2 Prepare salts by acids + metals
12.6.6 Prepare salts by precipitation reactions
12.6.7 Prepare salts by direct union of elements
12.6.8 Prepare salts by bases + non-metallic oxides
12.6.9 Prepare salts by acids + salts

12.6.1 Prepare salts by neutralization of a soluble acid and a base
Acid-base neutralization: Acid + Base (Alkali) --> Salt + Water
H + (aq) + OH - (aq) --> H 2 O.

12.6.2 Prepare salts by acids + metals
Acid + metal --> salt + hydrogen gas
(Metals that displace hydrogen from an acid may be called "active metals", e.g. Zn, Fe)

12.6.6 Prepare salts by precipitation reactions
Precipitation reactions, double decomposition reactions, double displacement reactions
Mixing two soluble compounds to prepare an insoluble salt.
Solution 1 + Solution 2 --> Insoluble solid 3 + Solution 4

12.6.7 Prepare salts by direct union of elements
Direct union of elements to form compounds: 8.0.0

12.6.8 Prepare salts by bases + non-metallic oxides
12.17.3.1 Carbon dioxide with sodium hydroxide solution
CO2 (g) + 2NaOH (aq) --> Na2CO3 (aq)+ H2O (l)

12.6.9 Prepare salts by acids + salts
sulfuric acid + sodium chloride --> sodium sulfate
H2SO4 (aq) + NaCl (s) --> NaHSO4 (s) + HCl (g)
H2SO4 (aq) + MgCl2 (s) --> Mg(HSO4)2(s) + HCl (g)

12.2.01 Prepare salts by chemical reactions
Salts can be prepared by the action of acids with alkalis, carbonates, metals, metal oxides, and by replacement and double decomposition reactions.
A salt contains a metal and part of an acid, e.g. copper sulfate from sulfuric acid, sodium chloride from hydrochloric acid.
A salt is a compound formed when the hydrogen of an acid is replaced by a metal.
For example, when zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid it replaces the hydrogen and forms the salt, zinc chloride.
The hydrogen comes away as hydrogen gas.
Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2.
Experiments
1. Add silver nitrate solution to sodium chloride solution.
A silver chloride precipitate forms that can be separated from the sodium nitrate solution.
AgNO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) --> AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
silver nitrate + sodium chloride --> silver chloride + sodium nitrate
Be careful! Silver nitrate is expensive!
2. Add silver nitrate solution to potassium chloride solution.
A silver chloride precipitate forms that can be separated from the potassium chloride solution.
AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq) --> KNO3 (aq) + AgCl (s)
silver nitrate + potassium chloride --> silver chloride + potassium nitrate
Be careful! Silver nitrate is expensive!
