Name the following:
1. A basic solution which does not contain a metallic element.
2. A normal salt of sodium formed from acetic acid.
3. A base which reacts with an acid to give a salt which on hydrolysis gives a slightly acidic solution.
4. An ion which combines with a polar covalent molecule to form an ammonium ion.
5. Two acids other than sulphuric and nitric acid which may be present in acid rain.
1. Ammonium hydroxide, NH4OH
2. Sodium acetate, CH3COONa it is formed by the reaction of sodium hydroxide with acetic acid.
3. Salt of a strong acid and weak base, e.g. ammonium chloride, NH4Cl, copper sulphate, CuSO4, aluminium chloride, AlCl3
4. The ion is hydronium ion, H3O+
5. Carbonic acid, H2CO3 and Hydrochloric acid, HCl are acids found in acid rain.
