Lesson: Salts Chemistry

Students will be able to

• deduce the constituent ions and elements of a salt from its name,
• identify salts from lists of named compounds,
• write word and symbolic equations for precipitation reactions,
• determine whether a solution of a salt is acidic and basic,
• describe and explain the preparation of an insoluble salt (precipitate),
• describe and explain the preparation of a salt from an acid and an insoluble reactant,
• describe and explain the preparation of a salt from an acid and a soluble reactant.
