DO YOU KNOW WHAT IS SALT?

Let's recall, salt is an ionic compound formed by the neutralization of acid and bases

Not able to dissolve in water (s)

Insoluble

Able to dissolve in water (aq)

​Soluble

Salt is divided into soluble and insoluble

" While a number of salts are made by mining, others must be made by the industry.

Soluble salts are made by neutralizing an acid, Insoluble salts are made by other methods."

​The methods used depends on the type of salt and its solubility in water.
