Answer

Acid salts are a class of salts that produce an acidic solution after being dissolved in a solvent. An acidic solution formed by acid salt is made during partial neutralization of diprotic or polyprotic acids. $NaOH + H_{2}SO_{3} \rightarrow NaHSO_{3} + H_{2}O$ $NaOH + CO_{2} \rightarrow NaHCO_{3}$ $KOH + H_{3}PO_{4} \rightarrow KH_{2}PO_{4} + H_{2}O$ $2NaOH + H_{3}PO_{4} \rightarrow Na_{2}HPO_{4} + 2H_{2}O$ $NaOH + H_{2}S \rightarrow NaHS + H_{2}O$
