Answers
Answer:
5 and 6 both are same
Acidic - HNO3 , CuSO4 .
basic - Mg(OH)2 H2CO3
neutral substance - NaCl , KOH
Explanation:
6 both are same question .
mark me as brainlist .
Answer:
1. KOH - strong base
2. Mg(OH)2 - base
3. NaCl -NaCl is formed by the reaction of HCl and NaOH. Both are strong acids and bases. When a strong acid and a strong base react together the resultant is salt and water.Therefore NaCl is a salt.
NaOH+HCl -----> NaCl+H2O
4. CuSO4 -CuSO4 is an acidic salt because it is formed through the reaction of H2SO4 ( a strong acid) and Cu(OH)2 ( a weak base) . So when these acid and base react a neutralization reaction takes place. Because H2SO4 is a strong acid and has a higher influence on the salt as compared to the weak base, therefore, the salt ( CuSO4) results to be acidic in nature. The reaction can be stated as follows:
H2SO4 + Cu(OH)2 = CuSO4 + 2H2O
5. H2CO3 - acid
6. HNO3 - acid
