1. Salts

2. What is a salt? A salt is a compound formed when the negative ions from an acid combine with the positive ions of a base Neutrilization is a chemical reaction between an acid and a base that takes place in a water solution, the products of which are water and salts

3. Acid/Base Reactions The general formula for an acid/base reaction is acid + base -> salt + water

4. Titration The process in which a solution of known concentration is used to determain the concentration of another The standard acid or base solution is added to the unknown acid or base solution containing an indicator Slowly add known solution until the entire solution changes color At this point all of one substance has been neutralized Using the known volume of standard solution used the concentration of the unknown can be calculated

5. Naming Acids and Bases What is the name of HCl? There are two types of acid: Binary Acid – 2 elements, one of which must be H Trinary Acid – 3 elements, one of which must be H and another O

6. Naming a binary acid Hydro – stem of element – ic acid HCl hydrochloric acid Naming a trinary acid Stem of element – ic if polyatomic ends in ate, ous if the polyatomic ends in ite - acid HNO 3 nitric acid
