Aqueous solutions of NaBr,K₂SO₄,and NaF will be neutral.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aqueous solutions of NaBr and NaF will be neutral because they are salts formed from the reaction of a strong acid with a strong base. However, the solution of K2SO4 (potassium sulfate) will also be neutral, not because of the specific ions' acid-base properties, but because both potassium (K+) and sulfate (SO4^2-) ions come from strong bases (potassium hydroxide) and strong acids (sulfuric acid), respectively, leading to a neutral solution. The notation "K₂SO₄" seems to be a formatting or encoding error, but interpreting it as K2SO4, the statement remains false because all mentioned solutions are neutral, not just NaBr and NaF.
