I am confused how you figure out if a salt will make a solution acidic or basic. I am referring to question 23 of the gchem which says "Which salt will form a solution with a pH less than 7?"
A) KBr
B) NH4NO3
C)NaF
D)KCN
E)Na2CO3
I understand B through E but I dont really understand why KBr is neutral. It says they are both spectator ions. How would I figure that out?
The supplemental questions are giving me a hard time
A) LiBr
B) FeCl3
C) AlCl3
D)CH3COOK
with these i am having trouble wiht A, B, and C. Can someone explain how to figure out these kinds of problems?
I dont post much on here, but I definitely have been reading these forums for a long time. Now its DAT Crunch time!
Thanks!
