Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
$C H_{3} C O O^{-} + H_{2} O ⇌ C H_{3} C O O H + O H^{-}$

$N H_{4}^{+} + H_{2} O ⇌ N H_{4} O H + H^{+}$

The ammonium acetate is the salt of a weak acid and a weak base.

Both will affect salt hydrolysis.Since both cation and anion undergo hydrolysis producing weak acid and weak base.

Therefore there are no spectator ions.

Hydrolysis is opposite process of neutralisation in any case.

Option B is correct.

Assertion – The non-fusible impurities present in iron ore are removed by $C a C O_{3}$ .

Reason: $C a C O_{3}$ which decomposes into $C a O$ and $C O_{2}$ . The $C a O$ formed reacts with $S i O_{2}$ to remove silica
