Solution

The correct option is B False
The given statement is False.
NaH2PO2 and NaHPO3 are normal salts.
NaH2PO2 is a normal salt as all the ionisable H atoms of the parent acid have been replaced. Thus, when we replace 1 H atom from H3PO2 with 1 Na atoms, we get NaH2PO2.
Note: NaH2PO2 has only one ionisable H atom.
NaHPO3 is a normal salt as all the ionisable H atoms of the parent acid have been replaced. Thus, when we replace 1 H atom from H2PO3 with 1 Na atom, we get NaHPO3.
Note : NaHPO3 has only one ionisable H atom.
