Question
Why is KCl solution neutral to litmus?
✓

Answer

  1. Since KCl is a salt of strong base KOH and strong acid HCl , it does not undergo hydrolysis in its aqueous solution.
  2. Due to strong acid and strong base, concentrations $\left[ H _3 O ^{+}\right]=\left[ OH ^{-}\right]$and the solution is neutral.
