Question
A salt, X is prepared by the complete neutralization of Cu(OH)2 with H2SO4. The nature of X is __________
- Acidic
- Basic
- Neutral
- Amophoteric
Hint:
The correct answer is: Acidic
The nature of X is Acidic.
- Due to the fact that hydrogen ions outnumber hydroxyl ions in water and cupric hydroxide is a weak base while sulphuric acid is a strong acid, the aqueous solution of copper sulphate is acidic in nature.
- Thus, in solution, Cu(SO)4 will have an acidic pH.
