Question

Give reason :
Carbonic acid gives an acid salt but hydrochloric acid does not

In this question I was told to write the answer in terms of
basicity( monobasic , dibasic, etc ) if I write it in terms of
partial replacement will the answer be wrong ??

Dear Student,
The correct answer for this will be:
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a dibasic acid with
two replacable hydrogen ions,therefore it forms one acid salt i e
acidic
Hydrochloric acid (HCL) is a monobasic acid with one replacable
hydrogen ion,therefore it forms a normal salt not acidic
Partial replacement can also be write,but if asked in terms of
dibasic and monobasic then refer the above given solution
Regards
