SALT
Salt is formed by the opposite ions bonded to each other through Ionic Bond. The two ions i.e. Cation and Anions are formed by oxidation and reduction reactions respectively. General dissociation of salt is represented as,
MN → Mⁿ⁺ + Nⁿ⁻
where;
Mⁿ⁺ = Cation
Nⁿ⁻ = Anion
MN = Salt
Following is the list of salts which when when dissociates produces Cations and Anions other than OH⁻ (Hydroxide) and H⁺ (Hydrogen Ion).
Magnesium Sulfate:
MgSO₄ → Mg²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
Sodium Chloride:
NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻
Sodium Carbonate:
Na₂CO₃ → 2 Na⁺ + CO₃²⁻
Ammonium Dichlorate:
(NH₄)₂Cr₂O₇ → 2 NH₄⁺ + Cr₂O₇²⁻
