Transcribed Image Text:**Participation**
Decide whether aqueous solutions are acidic, basic or neutral.
- KCl
- NaF
- Zn(NO₃)₂
- NH₄NO₃
- KNO₃
- Al(NO₃)₃
- Zn(HCOO)₂
Constants:
- \( K_a \) for \( \text{Zn(H}_2\text{O)}_6^{2+} = 1 \times 10^{-9} \)
- \( K_b \) for \( \text{HCOO}^- = 5.6 \times 10^{-11} \)
---
This activity involves determining the acidic, basic, or neutral nature of various aqueous solutions by considering the given dissociation constants.
