A white salt is readily soluble in water and gives a colourless solution with a `pH` of about `9`. The salt would be

A

`NH_(4)NO_(3)`

B

`CH_(3)COONa`

C

`CH_(3)COONH_(4)`

D

`CaCO_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`CaCO_(3)` is not readily soluble in water but `CH_(3)COONa` is readily soluble in water and give basic solution sinde it is a salt of weak acid and a strong base.
