Answer:

The answer to your question is Sodium Perchlorate

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

which is the salt?

Chemical reaction

Perchloric acid + Sodium hydroxide ⇒ Sodium perchlorate + Water

HClO₄ + NaOH = NaClO₄ + H₂O

Process

In inorganic chemistry there are two types of salts:

- Binary salts

- Oxysalts

Binary salts are inorganic compounds form by a metal and a nonmetal (only two compounds).

Oxysalts are inorganic compounds form by metal, a nonmetal, and oxygen (three elements).

In the reaction given the only compound that has these characteristics is Sodium perchlorate which is an oxysalt.
