Degree of hydrolysis for a salt of strong acid and weak base :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsCHECK THE SOLUTION.
(b,c,d) Let BA be this salt BA → B + + A –
A – does not undergo hydrolysis because HA is strong acid. B + undergoes hydroysis
h =
h = degree of hydrolysis where K h = Hydrolysis constant =
.
h ∝
greater the hydrolysis constant greater the h(degree of hydrolysis).
h ∝
greater the K b lesser the h.
Hydrolysis is endothermic, K h increases with temperature and h also increase with temperature.
h ∝
V = volume of salt solution hence h increases with dilution. K h = 
Both K w and K b change with temperature, hence K h changes with temperature.
Hence, statement(b) is correct. h increases if K b decreases, statement(c) correct.
It is found that as temperature increase, K w and K b increase but increase in K w is greater than increase in K b .
Hence, h increases with increase in temperature. or h decrease in temperature., hence statement.
is correct.
is not correct from explanation of .
