Answer:
The aqueous solution of ammonium chloride is acidic.
Ammonium chloride (NH
4
Cl) is a salt of a strong acid (HCl) and a weak base (NH
4
OH). Hence, in an aqueous solution, it shows acidic properties.
When mixed with water, it gets hydrolysed as follows.
NH

Cl+H

O→NH
4
OH+HCl
The salt and the strong acid (HCl) get ionised while the weak base (NH
4
OH) remains unionised.
