In this assignment you will be asked to classify aqueous solutions of salts as to whether they are acidic, basic, or neutral. This is most easily done by first identifying how both the cation and anion affect the pH of the solution and then by combining the effects. After predicting the acid-base properties of these salts, you will then test your predictions in the laboratory 1. State whether 0.7 M solutions of each of the following sales are acidic, basic, or neutral. Explain your reasoning for each by writing a balanced net ionic equation to describe the behavior of each non- neutral salt in water: NaCN, KNO, NH. CI, NaHCO3, and Na PO NaCN: KNO, NHACI: NaHCO: Na PO Once you have predicted the nature of each salt solution, you will use Virtual ChemLab to confirm your prediction. Each solution must be approximately 0.1 M for your comparisons to be valid. Most of the solutions in the Stockroom are approximately 0.1 M already. Three solutions must be prepared from solid salts. One of these salt solutions is already prepared and on the lab bench ready for you to measure the pH.
