It depends. Lets say that HCO3 reacts with NaOH to produce NaCO3 + H2O. In this reaction it is a conjugate BASE. So it really depends on the reaction. But if I had to guess I would say that it was a base.

Why Iron chloride acidic while sodium carbonate basic explain?
Iron chloride is acidic because some of the water molecules in its hydration shell deprotonate. Sodium carbonate is basic because its the salt of a weak acid. Thus, some carbonate ions take protons from water, creating basic hydroxide ions.
Is sodium nitrate basic salt or acidic salt?

it is both a salt and an acid
Is NaCN acidic basic or neutral?
Sodium cyanide is a basic salt.
Is the solution of Sodium Perchlorate acidic or basic?
A solution of sodium perchlorate is neutral.
