Predicting pH of salts Flashcards
1
Q
What is the pH of salts
A
Tied to relative strength of its conjugate acid base pair
2
Q
Behaviours of salts
A
Salts that arise from reaction of strong acid and weak base are termed as acid salts
Salts that arise from the reaction of a weak acid and a strong base are termed as basic salts
salts that arise from either the reaction of a strong acid and strong base or reaction of weak weak are termed as neutral
