Answer #1

Cr(NO3)3 is salt of strong acid ( HNO3) and weak base (Cr(OH)2

Cr(NO3)3 is acidic due to cationic hydrolysis

Cr^3+ (aq) + 3H2O(l) ------------> Cr(OH)3 + 3H^+ (aq)

NH4Cl is a salt of strong acid (HCl) and weak base ( NH3)

NH4Cl is acidic due to cationic hydrolysis

NH4^+ (aq) + H2O (l) ---------------> NH3(aq) + H3O^+ (aq)

NaI is salt of strong acid HI and strong base ( NaOH)

NaI is neutral

compound                 solution is

Cr(NO3)3                 acidic

NH4Cl                      acidic

NaI                          neutral
