    Which one of the following salts gives an acidic solution in water                                               [MP PET 2002]

    A)                 \[C{{H}_{3}}COONa\]    

    B)                 \[N{{H}_{4}}Cl\]

    C)                 \[NaCl\]              

    D)                 \[C{{H}_{3}}COON{{H}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[N{{H}_{4}}Cl+{{H}_{2}}O\]⇌\[\underset{\text{Weak}\,\,\,\text{base}}{\mathop{N{{H}_{4}}OH}}\,+\underset{\text{Strong}\,\,\,\text{acid}}{\mathop{HCl}}\,\]. So it is  acidic in nature.
