QQuestion
The salt formed when concentrated sulphuric acid reacts with KNO3 above 200°C: [1]
- K2SO4
- K2SO3
- KHSO4
- KHSO3

✓Answer
a. K2SO4
Explanation:
Above 200°C, potassium nitrate reacts with concentrated sulphuric acid to form potassium sulphate and nitric acid.
The balanced equation is:
2\mathrm{KNO_3} + \mathrm{H_2SO_4} \xrightarrow{>200^\circ\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{K_2SO_4} + 2\mathrm{HNO_3}Therefore, the salt formed is potassium sulphate (K2SO4).
