One molar solution is acidic for

Correct answer: C. FeCl₃

  • A. KI
  • B. CH₃COONH₄
  • C. FeCl₃
  • D. None

Explanation

The correct answer is FeCl₃. FeCl₃ is formed from a weak base (Fe(OH)₃) and a strong acid (HCl), making the solution acidic due to the hydrolysis of the Fe³⁺ ion, which increases the concentration of H⁺ ions. KI is neutral because it is formed from a strong acid and a strong base. CH₃COONH₄ is generally neutral as it involves a weak acid and a weak base. Thus, None is incorrect because FeCl₃ is indeed acidic.
