Question

When dissolved in water, this salt will produce a solution that is NOT neutral. Select all that are True. OKCI NaBr BaBr2 CS2HPO4 CH4 Submit Answer Tries 0/98

Answer 1

The type of acid and base produce on hydrolysis of salt decides the nature of the salt. The combination of strong acid and strong base will produce a neutral salt. However, the combination of weak acid and strong base will produce basic salt solution just like in case of Cs2HPO4. On the other hand, the combination of weak base and strong acid will produce acidic salt solution.

Among the given salts, Cs2HPO4 will produce the solution which in NOT neutal.

kce + H₂O - KOH + strong Hle strong acid > Neutral NaBr + H₂O - NOOH + Hor . Strong Base strong acid Babra + H₂O → BaloH) + Hor - strong Base strong acid Cs2 HPO4 + 2H₂O 2 CsOH + H₂ Pou a strong base weak acid Chyt H₂O coth ? Neutral
