Answer 1

1)K2SO4 - B) KOH and H2SO4

2)NaBr - A) NaOH and HBr

Answer 2

Answer;

K2SO4 - KOH and H2SO4

NaBr - NaOH and HBr

Explanation;

• Salts are compounds that contain positively charged ions and negatively charged ions. That is; they consist of the positive ion of a base and the negative ion of an acid.
• Salts may be produced when acids and bases are combined together in equal proportions, a process called neutralization.
• During neutralization reactions an acid reacts with a base to form a salt and water as the only products.
