- Double Decomposition or PrecipitationPrecipitation is any liquid or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth. It comes in many forms, like rain, sleet, and snow. More
- Combination of Constituent Elements
Salts are classified into two, based on their solubility in water – Soluble and Insoluble salts.
Soluble salts are prepared by crystallization while insoluble salts are prepared by precipitation or double decomposition and by the combination of constituent elements.
Two factors that influence the method of preparing salts are:
- Its solubility in water.
- Its stability to heat.
Preparation of Soluble Salts:
1. By the Action of Dilute Acid on Metals:
A salt can be prepared by the direct displacement of the hydrogen ion in an acid by a metal higher than hydrogen in the activity series e.g. calcium, magnesium, zinc, and iron.
