Define the term salt hydrolysis?

answered-by-expert Expert Answer
Salt hydrolysis is a process in which a salt reacts with water to form acid and base. Salts of strong acids and bases when dissolved in water get completely ionized into cations and anions. Whereas salts of weak acids and bases as well as salts of weak acid base with strong acids and bases when dissolved in water get hydrolyzed and acid-base equilibrium is established. The nature of the solution after hydrolysis depends upon the relative strength of the acid and base formed.
