7.63. Predict if the solutions of the following salts are neutral, acidic or basic:
NaCl, KBr, NaCN, NH4NO3, NaNO2 and
(i) NaCl:
NaCl+H2O↔NaOH+HCl
Strong base Strong acid
Therefore, it is a neutral solution.
(ii) KBr:
KBr+H2O↔KOH+HBr
Strong base Strong acid
Therefore, it is a neutral solution.
(iii) NaCN:
NaCN+H2O↔HCN+NaOH
Weak acid Strong base
Therefore, it is a basic solution.
(iv) NH4NO3
NH4NO3+H2O↔NH4OH+HNO3
Weak bas
