- B \(\mathrm{CuCl}_2\)
- C KCl
- D KCl
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COONa}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COONa}\) is a salt of a strong base (\(\mathrm{NaOH}\)) and a weak acid (\(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}\)). Its aqueous solution is basic, turning red litmus blue.
