Name the following:

1. A basic solution which does not contain a metallic element.
2. A normal salt of sodium formed from acetic acid.
3. A base which reacts with an acid to give a salt which on hydrolysis gives a slightly acidic solution.
4. An ion which combines with a polar covalent molecule to form an ammonium ion.
5. A soluble salt formed by direct combination between a light metal & a greenish yellow gas.

1. Ammonium Hydroxide (NH₄OH) is a basic solution which does not contain a metallic element.
2. Sodium acetate (CH₃COONa) is a normal salt of sodium formed from acetic acid.
3. Ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) is a base which reacts with an acid to give a salt which on hydrolysis gives a slightly acidic solution.
4. Hydrogen ion (H⁺) is an ion which combines with a polar covalent molecule to form an ammonium ion.
5. Aluminium chloride (AlCl₃) is a soluble salt formed by direct combination between a light metal & a greenish yellow gas where, light metal is Al and greenish yellow gas is Cl.
