MCQ
Aqueous solution of ferric chloride is
  • Acidic
  • B
    Basic
  • C
    Neutral
  • D
    Amphoteric

Answer

Correct option: A.
Acidic
a
(a)$FeC{l_3}$ is a salt of strong acid and weak base. It gives $Fe{(OH)_3}$ and $HCl$ on hydrolysis. $Fe{(OH)_3}$ is a weak base and $HCl$ is strong acid.
So the aqueous solution of $FeC{l_3}$ will be acidic in nature
