I know that when a salt such as NaF is dissolved in water will dissociate and form HF creating a basic condition.
So why when you you have an ion such as sulfate or carbonate they react to form H2SO4 and H2CO3 they form a acidic solution.
These ideas seem to conflict? In both reactions you have a base absorbing hydrogens but only only in the first reaction a basic solution is formed.
Does this have something to do with the diprotic acid?
