Salts can create acidic or basic solutions by containing a conjugate base and a weak acid, which when dropped in a solution of water reacts with the water to form a solution with a pH greater than seven.

what is the general rule of thumb to decide if a salt solution is acidic basic or neutral?

To determine if a salt solution is acidic, basic, or neutral, consider the strengths of the acid and base from which the salt is derived. If both the acid and base are strong, the solution is typically neutral. If the salt comes from a strong acid and a weak base, the solution will be acidic; if it comes from a weak acid and a strong base, the solution will be basic. Additionally, the hydrolysis of the salt ions in water can also affect the pH.

Is sodium nitrate basic salt or acidic salt?

Sodium nitrate is considered a neutral salt because it is formed from the reaction between a strong base (sodium hydroxide) and a weak acid (nitric acid). This typically results in a salt that is neither strongly acidic nor strongly basic.

Is NaNO2 an acidic salt or basic salt?

NaNO2 is a basic salt because it is formed from a strong base (NaOH) and a weak acid (HNO2). This makes the resulting salt slightly alkaline in aqueous solutions.
