MCQ
A white salt is readily soluble in water and gives a colourless solution with a $pH$ of about $ 9$. The salt would be
  • A
    $N{H_4}N{O_3}$
  • $C{H_3}COONa$
  • C
    $C{H_3}COON{H_4}$
  • D
    $CaC{O_3}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$C{H_3}COONa$
(b) $pH$  of $9$  means the salt solution should be fairly basic.
