When salt dissolves, it can form either acidic or basic salt solutions. Calcium chloride, CaCl, is a salt that is usedto develop viscosity in polymers, food additives and preservatives, surfactants, and as a pH control in chemicals. On the other hand, sodium amide, NaNH, serves asa catalyst and a nucleophilic reagent in the industrial production of indigo dye. (a) The aqueous salt solution of CaClzis neutral. Explain this statement using the salt dissociation equation in water. The aqueous salt solution of NaNHzis basic. Explain this statement using the salt dissociation equation in water. (b)
