Q

NaNO2 is considered basic why?

A

When hydrolyzed, forms OH-

- water’s hydrogen neutralizes the NO2- and OH- ions shift pH

Q

What can you draw about low solubility constant?

A

Decrease concentration in solution

  • less soluble: likely to precipitate as solid first
  • less soluble, less ionized. Good if one of the dissolved substances as ionic is damaging or toxic
