MCQ
The aqueous solution of $AlC{l_3}$ is acidic due to the hydrolysis of
  • A
    Aluminium ion
  • B
    Chloride ion
  • C
    Both aluminium and chloride ion
  • None of these

Answer

Correct option: D.
None of these
d
$AlCl _3$ is a Salt of $SA$ and $W B$ i.e

$Al ( OH )_3+ HCl \rightleftharpoons AlCl _3+ H _2 O$

when we make aquous solution of $AlCl_3$ this undergo cationic hydrolysis, And form hydrated ion complex due to which solution becomes acidic.

$Al ^{3+}+ H _2 O \longrightarrow\left[ Al \left( H _2 O \right)_6\right]^{3+}$
