The `pH` of `0.1M` solution of the following salts decreases in the orderA. `NaCI lt NH_(4) CI lt NaCN lt HCI`B. `HCI lt NH_(4) CI ltNaCI lt NaCN`C. `NaCN lt NH_(4) CI lt NaCI lt HCI`D. `HCI lt NaCIlt NaCN lt NH_(4) CI` |

Answer» Correct Answer - B The Characterstics of the given solutions are: `NaCI` Neutral solution (Salt of `S_(A)//S_(B))` `NH_(4)CI` Slightly acidic sue to the reaction (Salt of `W_(B)//S_(A))` `NH_(4)^(o+) +NH_(4)OH +H^(o+)` `NaCN` Slightly alkaline due to the reaction (Salt of `S_(B)//W_(A))` `CN^(Theta) +H_(2)O hArr HCN +OH` `HCI` highly acidic The `pH` of the solution will follow the order highly acidic lt slightly acidic lt neutral lt slightly alkaline. i.e., `HCI lt NH_(4)CI lt NaCI lt NaCN` |
