Q33 of 43 Page 60

The solution obtained by weak acid and strong base in basic in nature. Why?

In the reaction between a strong base and a weak acid, the acid does not get completely ionized and some amount of acid is present in unionized form. So, when we take equal moles of a weak acid and strong base and mix them together them also some OH- remains excess in the solution and the solution becomes basic in nature.
