Give reason that acetic acid is less acidic in sodium acetate solution than in sodium chloride solution.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`to` Acetic acid in sodium acetate solution is less acidic. Reasons :
`to` Because of common ion effect ionisation process is decreased.
`to` Sodium acetate is obtained by the reaction of weak acid and strong base.
`to` Acetic acid in NaCl solution is more acidic.
Reason :
`to` Here no common ion effect observed. :
NaCl is the salt obtained by strong acid and strong basé,
