MHT CET2007ChemistryIonic Equilibrium
When ammonium chloride is added to ammonia solution, the pH of the resulting solution will be
Options
- Aincreased
- Bseven
- Cdecreased
- Dunchanged
Correct answer
C. decreased
Step-by-step solution
Due to common ion effect, rate of ionization of NH ₄ OH decreases, so lower [OH ] is obtained. Hence, pH value decrease.
