It is a basic salt because the acetate ion can accept an H+ ion from water, leaving extra OH- ions, thus pH increases (above 7, alkaline)

yes
In which is KNO3 soluble benzene hexane or water?
Potassium nitrate is soluble in water, as it is an ionic solid. When dissolved in water, potassium nitrate will form an aqueous solution of potassium and nitrate ions.
Will potassium chloride be more soluble in water or in isopropanol?
definitely more soluble in water....
Which is most soluble in water potassium nitrate or carbon tetrachloride?
Almost all the nitrates are soluble in water including potassium nitrate, but carbon tetrachloride is an organic non polar liquid so it is not soluble in water.
Where is potassium acetate found?
As a soluble substance we wouldn't expect to find potassium acetate in nature.
Is sodium acetate soluble or insoluble in water?
Sodium acetate is soluble in water.
Is C2H3O2 a soluble?
Most probably potassium acetate is meant, which is soluble like (almost) all potassium salts.
Iron (III) acetate is soluble or insoluble?
Iron (III) acetate is not soluble in water.
Is chromium iii acetate soluble or not soluble?
soluble in water.
Is aluminum acetate soluble?

Is a precipitate formed when mixing potassium chloride and lead acetate?
Yes; lead(II) chloride is very low soluble in water.
Is silver acetate soluble in water?
No
Is nickel acetate soluble or not soluble?
Nickel(II) acetate is soluble in water and polar solvents such as alcohols, dimethyl formamide etc.
Is CH3COOk soluble or insoluble in water?
If you mean by 'Ch3COO^-K^+ ( Potassium ethanoate ( Potassium Acetate)). Then it will dissolve in water, because all group ' 1' metal salts are soluble. NB 'k' for potassium is incorrect. It should be 'K' ( Kalium ; Latin name). All single letter elemental symbols are CAPITAL letters.
What observation is expected if the sample of water is soluble in the ethyl acetate?
You get an ethyl acetate in water solution
Is sodium acetate soluble in water?
yes
