Question

Maximum hydrolysis occurs in the salt of a weak acid and a weak base. If true write 1, else write 0.

Answer 1

Maximum hydrolysis occurs in the case of such a salt as both the cation and anion are reactive and react with water to produce $H^{+}$ and $O{H}^{-}$ ions. The solution is generally neutral but it can be either slightly acidic or slightly alkaline if both the reactions take place with slightly different rates.

So maximum hydrolysis occurs in the salt of a weak acid and a weak base.
