Question
Consider the following salts:
Na2CO3, NaCl, NH4Cl, CH3COONa, K2SO4, (NH4)2SO4
Which of salts will give:
neutral solutions?
Solution
The salt solutions of NaCl and K2SO4 are neutral, because these salts are formed from a strong base and a strong acid, and on ionisation, there is an equal number of H+ and OH- ions, making the solutions neutral.
