The correct Answer is:
To determine the nature of the aqueous solutions of HCOONa, C6H5NH3Cl, and KCN, we need to analyze each compound based on the acids and bases from which they are derived. ### Step 1: Analyze HCOONa - **HCOONa (Sodium Formate)**: This is a salt formed from the weak acid formic acid (HCOOH) and the strong base sodium hydroxide (NaOH). - **Nature of Solution**: Since it is derived from a weak acid and a strong base, the solution will be basic. ### Step 2: Analyze C6H5NH3Cl - **C6H5NH3Cl (Benzylammonium Chloride)**: This is a salt formed from the weak base aniline (C6H5NH2) and the strong acid hydrochloric acid (HCl). - **Nature of Solution**: Since it is derived from a weak base and a strong acid, the solution will be acidic. ### Step 3: Analyze KCN - **KCN (Potassium Cyanide)**: This is a salt formed from the strong base potassium hydroxide (KOH) and the weak acid hydrocyanic acid (HCN). - **Nature of Solution**: Since it is derived from a strong base and a weak acid, the solution will be basic. ### Conclusion - The aqueous solutions of HCOONa, C6H5NH3Cl, and KCN are respectively: **Basic, Acidic, Basic**. ### Final Answer - HCOONa: Basic - C6H5NH3Cl: Acidic - KCN: Basic
