Preparation of soluble salt of sodium, potassium and ammonium
1. Soluble salts of sodium, potassium and ammonium can be prepared by the reaction between an acid and an alkali.
2. For example,the salt sodium chloride. NaCl, can be prepared by the reaction of hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide. The cation of the salt is from the base, NaOH and the anion is from the acid. HCl.

3. The reaction between an acid with an alkaline for the preparation of soluble salts of sodium, potassium and ammonium can be done by using the titration method.
4. The titration method is carried out to ensure that all the acid react completely with the alkali.

Preparation of salts that are not sodium, potassium or ammonium salts
1. For the preparation of a salt that is not a sodium, potassium or ammonium salt, three methods of preparation can be used which involve the reaction between
a) an acid and a metal
b) an acid and a metal carbonate
c) an acid and a metal oxide or hydroxide
2. Some examples of salts that is not a salt of sodium, potassium and ammonium are:
a) an acid and a metal
b) an acid and a metal carbonate
c) an acid and a metal oxide or hydroxide
