The aqueous solutions of sodium formate, anilinium chloride and potassium cyanide are respectively.
Options
acidic, acidic, basic
basic, acidic, basic
basic, neutral, basic
none of these

Solution
basic, acidic, basic
Explanation:
\[\ce{\underset{Basic in nature}{HCOONa} + H - OH ⇌ \underset{strong base}{NaOH} + \underset{weak acid}{H - COOH}}\]
\[\ce{C6H5NH3Cl^- + H - OH ⇌ \underset{acidic}{H3O^+} + C6H5 - NH2 + Cl^-}\]
\[\ce{\underset{basic}{KCN} + H - OH ⇌ \underset{strong base}{KOH} + \underset{weak acid}{HCN}}\]
