State whether each of the following is an acid, a base, a salt, or none of these.
(a) HCl
(b) NaOH
(c) Al(OH)3
(d) H2O
(e) MgCl2
(f) H3PO4
(g) Na2SO4

(a) HCl -Acid 'cause it begins with H
(b) NaOH -Base cos it ends with OH
(c) Al(OH)3 -Base cos it ends with OH
(d) H2O -none of these (and its pH is 7 which is neutral, which means it's no acid, nor base)
(e) MgCl2 -Salt cos doesn't begin with H or ends with OH
(f) H3PO4 -Acid 'cause it begins with H
(g) Na2SO4 -Salt cos doesn't begin with H or ends with OH
