A few grams of borax is dissolved in distilled water. The \(\mathrm{pH}\) range of resultant solution is
- A 1 − 4
- B 4 − 7
- C 2 − 5
- D 7 − 14
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 7 − 14
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The aqueous solution of borax is alkaline due to hydrolysis. Borax is, therefore, used as a water softner and cleaning agent. Therefore, the pH of solution is more than 7.
