(i) metal + acid ==> a salt + hydrogen

(ii) basic oxide or hydroxide + acid ==> a salt + water

(iii) carbonate + acid ==> a salt + water + carbon dioxide

(iv) ammonia + acid ==> ammonium salt (note: no water formed, but
ammonia (NH3) is an alkaline gas and soluble in water and neutralised by
acids to form ammonium salts (NH4 ...)

The name of the salt depends on (i) the metal name, which becomes the first
part of salt name, and (ii) the acid e.g. H2SO4 sulfuric acid makes a ...
sulfate (...SO4), HCl hydrochloric acid makes a ... chloride (...Cl),
HNO3 nitric acid makes a … nitrate (...NO3) and CH3COOH ethanoic acid
makes an ethanoate (...OOCCH3 or CH3COO..).
