Explanation:
NaHSO4 dissociates completely in water as Na+ & HSO−4 ions
NaHSO4(s)−→−H2ONa+(aq)+HSO−4(aq)
The HSO−4 ion once again dissociates in (reacts with) water to form H3O+ ion & SO2−4 ions
HSO−4(aq)+H2O(l)→SO2−4(aq)+H3O+(aq)
The net reaction is as follows
NaHSO4(s)+H2O(l)→Na+(aq)+SO2−4(aq)+H3O+(aq)
The formation hydronium ion ( H3O+ ) is responsible for the slightly acidic nature of NaHSO4Sodium hydrogen sulphate.
