Notes
Salts- In chemistry, a salt is a chemical compound consisting of an ionic assembly of cations and anions.[1] Salts are composed of related numbers of cations (positively charged ions) and anions (negatively charged ions) so that the product is electrically neutral (without a net charge). Often a salt is an ionic compound in which the cation is a metal and anion is a nonmetal or group of nonmetals.
An oxyacid, oxoacid, or ternary acid is an acid that contains oxygen. Specifically, it is a compound that contains hydrogen, oxygen, and at least one other element, with at least one hydrogen atom bonded to oxygen that can dissociate to produce the H+ cation and the anion of the acid.[1]

Hydroxyl Group Definition
A hydroxyl group is a functional group that attaches to some molecules containing an oxygen and hydrogen atom, bonded together. Also spelled hydroxy, this functional group provides important functions to both alcohols and carboxylic acids. Alcohols are chains of carbon molecules with a functional hydroxyl group side chain. The electronegativity of the oxygen adds a slight polarity to alcohols, which is why they are able to interact with other polar molecules such as water and some solutes. Below is a general alcohol which contains a hydroxyl group. The oxygen is the red atom, while the hydrogen is represented by the grey atom. The R represent any generic carbon chain.
Carboxylic acids contain a hydroxyl group within their functional carboxyl group. A carboxyl group consists of a carbonyl group bonded to a hydroxyl group. A carbonyl group is simply a carbon double bonded to an oxygen. These two functional groups together create an extremely reactive molecule, which is prone to forming new carbon-carbon bonds. Along with alcohols, carboxylic acids are commonly seen in nature. A generic carboxylic acid with its hydroxyl group can be seen below.
Besides these two large classes of molecules that are functionally dependent on the hydroxyl group, many other molecules contain hydroxyl groups. As mentioned, a large part of the action caused by the hydroxyl group is due to the electronegativity of the oxygen. Because oxygen has a stronger attraction with the electrons bonding hydrogen to the molecule, the hydroxyl group can easily lose the hydrogen to an atom that will share electrons more equally. When this happens, the oxygen takes on a much more negative electrical energy, and can donate the extra electrons it has to a number of reactions. Biological organisms use this property of oxygen to help connect and disconnect chains of carbon molecules, which hold energy the organism can use to power cellular functions.
