Naming Salts Quiz

Sodium chloride is formed by the combination of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) ions in a 1:1 ratio.

The reaction between sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and potassium hydroxide (KOH) produces potassium sulfate (K2SO4) and water.

The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3) produces calcium chloride (CaCl2), carbon dioxide (CO2), and water.

The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) produces sodium chloride (NaCl), carbon dioxide (CO2), and water.

The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) produces barium chloride (BaCl2) and water.

Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) and water.

The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and ammonia (NH3) results in the formation of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl).

Magnesium nitrate has the chemical formula Mg(NO3)2, indicating the presence of magnesium ions (Mg2+) and nitrate ions (NO3-) in a 1:2 ratio.

In the salt Na2SO4 (sodium sulfate), sulfur has a valency of 4, as it forms four bonds with oxygen.

Iron(III) sulfate has the chemical formula Fe2(SO4)3, indicating the presence of iron ions (Fe3+) and sulfate ions (SO4^2-) in a 2:3 ratio.

Silver chloride (AgCl) is insoluble in water, forming a white precipitate when these ions combine.

Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) is commonly known as washing soda or soda ash.

The reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sodium sulfide (Na2S) produces hydrogen gas (H2) along with sodium chloride.

Potassium nitrate (KNO3) is commonly known as saltpeter or nitre.

Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is commonly known as limestone or chalk.
