उत्तर
A salt whose aqueous solution will have a pH of more than 7 will be K2CO3.
Explanation:
A pH of more than 7 indicates that the aqueous solution is basic or alkaline. Potassium carbonate (K2CO3) is a basic salt formed from a strong base (KOH) and a weak acid (H2CO3). When dissolved in water, carbonate ions undergo anionic hydrolysis, releasing excess hydroxide ions (OH−), thereby raising the pH above 7.
