Q5
Assertion :The pH of an aqueous solution of sodium acetate is more than 7. Reason: Sodium acetate is a salt of a weak acid (acetic acid) and a strong base (NaOH). It undergoes hydrolysis in aqueous solutions.
CH3COONa+H2O→CH3COOH+Na++OH−
Acetic acid is weak acid and is partially dissociated whereas NaOH is a strong base and completely dissociated.
