Question

Consider the following salts:
Na₂CO₃, NaCl, NH₄Cl, CH₃COONa, K₂SO₄, (NH₄)₂SO₄
Which of salts will give:

neutral solutions?

Answer 1

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.
