Dissolved in sodium and potassium?

Question

Why Chloride,Iodide,Carbonate,Sulfate etc Dissolved in sodium and potassium?

Answer 1

it is not called dissolved, to my knowledge. Chlorde, Iodide, Carbonate can combine with sodium and potasium to become a kind of salt. becuz chloride, Iodide, carbonate is negative ion, they combine with positive ion such as sodium and potassium to become a neutralized salt.

Answer 2

Sodium (Na) and Potassium (K) are both metals. Chloride (Cl-), Iodide (I-), Carbonate (CO3--), Sulfate (SO4--) are anions. Anions are formed when their respective metallic salts are dissolved into aqueous solution and therefore there are metallic cations along with the anions. So, when you bring Na or K in contact with the aqueous media, they react with the anions in a subostitution reaction summarized below: (A= Na or K, X= Cl or I, B=CO3-- or SO4--)

First,

2A + H2O ----> 2A+ + 2OH-

Then

A+ + X- --> AX or

2A+ + B-- --> AB

Answer 3

first of all:to form ionic bond we need anion and cation
Her we have anion like (all Halide) chloride,iodide,carbonate,sulfate
,and cation like (all III group elements) sodium potassium

Answer 4

Please review your question: your statment is wrong. caronate, iodide, chloride do not dissolve in sodium and potassium...

Answer 5

what do u mean?
