Which of the following is a salt formed from a strong acid and a weak base?
  • Step 1: Identify the components of the salt NH4Cl.
  • Step 2: Recognize that NH4Cl is made from ammonium (NH4+) and chloride (Cl-).
  • Step 3: Determine the source of the ammonium ion (NH4+). It comes from the weak base ammonia (NH3).
  • Step 4: Identify the source of the chloride ion (Cl-). It comes from the strong acid hydrochloric acid (HCl).
