some commen salts and their uses?
611658
Here are a few:\n\nAmmonium Nitrate - fertilizer \nSodium Benzoate - a preservative\nSodium Hypochlorite - household bleach, whitening and disinfecting agent\nCalcium Sulfate dihydrate - Gypsum, used to make drywall

Always remember that salts are formed by ions:\n\nCommon salt-forming cations include:\n\nammonium NH4+ \ncalcium Ca2+ \niron Fe2+ and Fe 3+ \nmagnesium Mg2+ \npotassium K+ \npyridinium C5H5NH+ \nquaternary ammonium NR4+ \nsodium Na+\n\nCommon salt-forming anions (and the name of the parent acids in parentheses) include:\n\nacetate CH3COO− (acetic acid) \ncarbonate CO32− (carbonic acid) \nchloride Cl− (hydrochloric acid) \ncitrate HOC(COO−)(CH2COO−)2 (citric acid) \ncyanide C≡N− (hydrogen cyanide) \nhydroxide OH− (water) \nnitrate NO3− (nitric acid) \nnitrite NO2− (nitrous acid) \noxide O2− (water) \nphosphate PO43− (phosphoric acid) \nsulfate SO42− (sulfuric acid)

http://allergies.about.com/cs/treatment/a/aa040802a.htm\nA saline solution for irrigation is easy to make. To make an isotonic solution (one similar to the salt content of your bodily fluids), mix 1/4-teaspoon salt in an 8-ounce glass of warm water and add a pinch (1/4-tsp.) of baking soda. Discard any unused solution.\nYou may chose to use filtered or distilled water if your water contains a lot of chemicals. Table salt can be used, but many prefer to use non-iodized canning or pickling salt.\n\nIf you do not want to make your own solution, you can also purchase sterile saline at your local pharmacy or grocery store. You can find it in the contact lens care section of the store. The purchased solutions, however, do not contain baking soda. Using baking soda improves the mucus-solvent properties of the solution.\n\n\nhttp://www.flatrock.org.nz/topics/lifestyles/consumer_tips_for_salt_use.htm

You can use salt or baking soda instead of herbs as well

Rock salt lamps?\n\n"Salt lamps have proven their ability to improve breathing, reduce stress, reduce headaches and aid with asthma and allergies. Many of these problems are due to today’s electrical environment which is generating Positive ions that are harmful. Salt lamps when warmed by a bulb or tea lights or candle will emit negative ions that will saturate the surrounding air and neutralize the harmful positive ions thus making a fresh atmosphere - similar to a stroll by the sea or after a thunderstorm."

I'll describe them by each element:\nLi:used primarily in heat-transfer applications, batteries (mainly cell phone and camera batteries), household appliances such as toasters and microwaves, and in high performance alloys such as those used for aircraft construction.\n\nNa:used to refine some reactive metals, such as zirconium and potassium, from their compounds. This alkali metal as the Na+ ion is vital to animal life. Other uses: In certain alloys to improve their structure. In soap, in combination with fatty acids. Sodium soaps are harder (higher melting) soaps than potassium soaps. \nTo descale metal (make its surface smooth). \nTo purify molten metals. In sodium vapor lamps, an efficient means of producing light from electricity \n\nK: It is primarily used in fertilizer as either the chloride, sulfate or carbonate - not as the oxide. \nPotassium hydroxide is an important industrial chemical used as a strong base. \nPotassium nitrate is used in gunpowder (black powder). An older term for KNO3 is saltpeter. \nPotassium carbonate, known as potash, is used in glass manufacturing. \nGlass treated with liquid potassium is much stronger than regular glass. \nNaK, pronounced "nack", an alloy of sodium and potassium which is liquid at room temperature, is used as a heat-transfer medium. It can also be used as a desiccant for producing dry and air-free solvents. \nPotassium is an essential component needed in plant growth and is found in most soil types. \nIn animal cells potassium ions are vital to keeping cells alive \nPotassium chloride is used as a substitute for table salt and is also used to stop the heart, e.g. in cardiac surgery and in executions by lethal injection in solution. \nThe superoxide KO2 is used as a portable source of oxygen and as a carbon dioxide absorber. It is useful in portable respiration systems. \n\nRb: A working fluid in vapor turbines. \nA getter in vacuum tubes. \nA photocell component. \nThe resonant element in atomic clocks. This is due to the hyperfine structure of Rubidium's energy levels. \nAn ingredient in special types of glass. \nThe production of superoxide by burning in oxygen. \nThe study of potassium ion channels in biology. \n\nCs: This element is most notably used in atomic clocks.\nFr: special fluorescent imaging camera

The term "Tutton salt" refers to a large class of chemical compounds that have the general formula:\n\nN2 M (XY4)2 . 6H2O, where \n\nN = K+, Rb+, Cs+, Tl+, or NH4+\nM = Mg++, V++, Cr++, Mn++, Fe++, Co++, Ni++, Cu++, Zn++, Cd++, or Ru++\nXY4 = (SO4)--, (SeO4)--, (BeF4)--, or (CrO4)--\n\nI don't know of any particularly unique application that they are "used to study";  the term simply refers to the class of compounds that shares a common crystal structure with hexahydrated double sulfate salts.
