Question

Salt that dissolves in water to form an alkaline solution is:

  1. K2CO3
  2. NaNO3
  3. NaOH
  4. NaCl

hintHint:

We need to know the concept of solute and solvent. A solution is formed when solute and solvent are mixed together. The solvent is mostly the aqueous part which is present in a higher amount than the solute.

The correct answer is: K2CO3


    Salt that dissolves in water to form an alkaline solution is: K2CO3
    • Alkaline solution will result from the dissolution of K2CO3  (Potassium carbonate) in water.
    • This is due to the fact that they are basic in nature since they are created by the combination of strong base (KOH) and a weak acid (H2CO3).
