To identify two salts among the given options whose solutions have a pH greater than 7, we need to analyze each salt based on the strength of the acid and base from which they are derived. A salt solution will have a pH greater than 7 if it is formed from a strong base and a weak acid. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze K₂S:** - **Cation:** K⁺ (from KOH, a strong base) - **Anion:** S²⁻ (from H₂S, a weak acid) - Since K₂S is derived from a strong base (KOH) and a weak acid (H₂S), its solution will have a pH greater than 7. ...
