Best Answer

Mg(BrO3)2 is magnesium bromate. Yes, it is a salt, but when hydolyzed in water, it will have a pH that is slightly basic. Why? Because it is formed from the reaction of a strong base, Mg(OH)2 and a somewhat weak acid HBrO3. Thus, a solution of this salt will have a pH >7

Neither, it is a neutral salt (conjugated with the strong acid HBrO3)
