Question

The aqueous solution of the salt prodused by neutralisation of weak acid and strong base possesses basic nature, while aqueous solution of salt produced by neutralisation of weak base and strong acid possesses acidic nature' - Explain.

Page 152 Chapter - 7.Acids, Bases and Salts

Answer 1

Answer:

Step by step explination

Strong acid +weak base=acidic salt+water

Weak acid+strong base =basic salt+water

Hope it helps

Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Explaination -

• When weak acid reacts with strong base, conjugate base of weak acid is formed. Thus aqueous solution of its salt will have basic nature.
• On the other hand when strong acid reacts with weak base, conjugate acid of weak base is formed. Thus aqueous solution of its salt will have acidic nature.

Thanks dear...
