Question

Identify the acids and bases from which the following salts are obtained. Write the chemical equations.
(i) $NaN{O}_3$
(ii) $N{H}_{4}Cl$

Answer 1

• $HN{O}_3+NaOH\to NaN{O}_3+H_{2}O$

Acid used : Nitric Acid -$HN{O}_3$

Base used: Sodium Hydroxide - $NaOH$

• $N{H}_{4}Cl$ is formed from the reaction of $N{H}_3$, a weak base, and $HCl$, a strong acid.
  

$N{H}_3+HCl\to N{H}_{4}Cl$
