SALTS A SALT is a compound formed when a metal is ionically bonded to a
non-metal.
Salts are formed in many acid-base reactions.
Acid + Metal SALT + hydrogen
Acid + Metal Oxide SALT + water
Acid + Metal hydroxide SALT + water
Acid + Metal carbonate SALT + carbon dioxide + water
Acid + Metal hydrogen carbonate SALT + carbon dioxide + water

pH calculations 1 Equations
pH = -log10[H+] [H+] = 10-pH
Example:
Calculate the pH for a specific [H+]: Given [H+] = 1.4 x 10-5 M
pH = log10[H+]
= log10(1.4 x 10-5)
= 4.85
Calculate the [H+] from pH: Given pH = 3.5
[H+] = 10-pH
= 10-3.5
= 3.16 x 10-4 mol.dm-3
