Which of the following compound is a normal salt?
- NaHS
- NaHSO4
- NaHCO3
-
Na2CO3
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
A normal salt is formed when a metal or a group of elements behaving like a metal completely replaces replaceable hydrogen atoms in an acid molecule.
Sodium carbonate, Na\(_2\)CO\(_3\) is a basic salt because it's formed when a weak acid, carbonic acid H\(_2\)CO\(_3\), partially neutralizes a strong base, sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
