Salt (chemistry) 盐
(重定向自Soluble salt)
In chemistry, a salt is an ionic compound that results from the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. Salts are composed of related numbers of cations (positively charged ions) and anions (negative ions) so that the product is electrically neutral (without a net charge). These component ions can be inorganic, such as chloride (Cl), or organic, such as acetate (CH
3CO−
2); and can be monatomic, such as fluoride (F), or polyatomic, such as sulfate (SO2−
4).
