One of the following salts will give an alkaline solution on dissolving in water. This is:
पर्याय
Na2CO3
Na2SO4
NaCl
(NH4)2SO4

उत्तर
Na2CO3
Explanation:
The Na2CO3 is formed from a weak acid, carbonic acid (H2CO3), and a strong base, sodium hydroxide (NaOH). On dissolving in water, Na2CO3 hydrolyses to form more OH- ions than H+ ions. Therefore, its aqueous solution is basic (alkaline), with a pH greater than 7.
