Answer:
A. NaHCO₃
Explanation:
NaHCO₃ ⇒ NaOH + H₂CO₃
NaOH is a strong base and H₂CO₃ is a weak acid. Therefore, NaHCO₃ is a salt of a strong base-weak acid reaction. The salt is basic because carbonic acid (H₂CO₃) is a weak acid so it remains undissociated. So, there is a presence of additional OH⁻ ions that makes the solution basic.
Hope that helps.
PH + pOH = 14
pH = 14 - pOH
pH = 14 - 8.7
pH = 5,3
This solution is <u>acidic</u>.
If pH<7 - acidic
If pH=7 - neutral
If pH>7 - basic
D.
both are stated to be in aqueous solutions by the (aq)
