The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given salts is an acid salt, we need to understand the definitions and characteristics of different types of salts. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the Types of Salts**: - **Neutral Salts**: Formed from the reaction of a strong acid with a strong base. Example: HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O. The pH of neutral salts is 7. - **Acidic Salts**: Formed from the reaction of a strong acid with a weak base. Example: HCl + NH4OH → NH4Cl + H2O. The pH of acidic salts is less than 7. - **Basic Salts**: Formed from the reaction of a weak acid with a strong base. Example: CH3COOH + NaOH → CH3COONa + H2O. The pH of basic salts is greater than 7. 2. **Identify the Given Salts**: - Na2S - Na2SO3 - Na2SO4 - NaHSO3 3. **Analyze Each Salt**: - **Na2S**: Formed from H2S (weak acid) and NaOH (strong base) → Basic salt. - **Na2SO3**: Formed from H2SO3 (weak acid) and NaOH (strong base) → Basic salt. - **Na2SO4**: Formed from H2SO4 (strong acid) and NaOH (strong base) → Neutral salt. - **NaHSO3**: Formed from H2SO3 (weak acid) and NaOH (strong base). This salt has one replaceable H atom, which can donate H⁺ ions, making it an acidic salt. 4. **Conclusion**: - The only salt that fits the definition of an acidic salt is **NaHSO3**. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **NaHSO3**, which is an acid salt.
