Question

Complete the following table with the acids and bases used to form particular salt. Also given the idea of whether the acid/ base is strong or weak and nature of the salt.

Accepted Answer

The complete table is as follows:

S. No. Salt Acid used Strong/Weak(S/W) Base used Strong/ Weak(S/W) Nature of the salt

$1$ Sodium chloride $HCl$ (S) $NaOH$ (S) Neutral

$2$ Sodium carbonate $H_{2} {CO}_{3}$ (W) $NaOH$ (S) Basic

$3$ Potassium nitrate ${HNO}_{3}$ (S) $KOH$ (S) Neutral

$4$ Copper sulphate $H_{2} {SO}_{4}$ (S) $Cu {(OH)}_{2}$ (W) Acid

$5$ Sodium acetate ${CH}_{3} COOH$ (W) $NaOH$ (S) Basic

$6$ Aluminium chloride $HCl$ (S) $Al {(OH)}_{3}$ (W) Acidic

$7$ Ferric chloride $HCl$ (S) $Fe {(OH)}_{3}$ (W) Acidic

$8$ Ammonium chloride $HCl$ (S) ${NH}_{3}$ (W) Acidic

$9$ Copper sulphate $H_{2} {SO}_{4}$ (S) $Cu {(OH)}_{2}$ (W) Acidic

$10$ Sodium hydrogen carbonate $H_{2} {CO}_{3}$ (W) $NaOH$ (S) Basic

Note: Salts that are formed after the reaction between a strong acid and weak base is called acidic salts.

Salts that are formed after the reaction between a weak acid and a strong base are called basic salts.

Salts produced because of the reaction between a strong acid and a strong base are neutral in nature.

Complete the following table with the acids and bases used to form particular salt. Also given the idea of whether the acid/ base is strong or weak and nature of the salt.
