Lead Nitrate is the salt of a strong acid (nitric acid) and a weak base (lead (II) or lead (IV) hydroxide).
Salts like these are somewhat acidic so lead nitrate (regardless of the oxidation state of lead) is an acid.
Aluminum nitrate is a slightly acidic salt.
Sodium Nitrate is a salt, the product of the reaction of an acid with a base. For instance, Sodium Hydroxide plus Nitric Acid would form the salt Sodium Nitrate and Water. NaOH + HNO3 = NaNO3 + H2O
Being the conjugate base of nitric acid (a strong acid), the nitrate ion is a weak base.
Potassium nitrate salt is neither a base nor an acid. the nitrate ion is a conjugate base of a strong acid (nitric acid). It will not hydrolyse in solution to produce OH- ions.
KNO3 is a salt, specifically potassium nitrate. It is formed by the reaction of a strong acid (HNO3) with a strong base (KOH), resulting in a neutral salt.
The solutions of ferric nitrate in water are acidic, because ferric hydroxide is a weak base while nitric acid is a strong acid.

KNO3 is a salt, specifically potassium nitrate. It is formed by the reaction of a strong acid (HNO3) with a strong base (KOH), resulting in a neutral salt.
It is acidic. it is formed by the reaction of Copper(2) Hydroxide which is a Weak base and Sulfuric Acid which is a strong Acid. A weak base + strong acid always gives an acidic salt.
Neither. Strictly speaking it is a very weak base. A Magnesium Nitrate solution is neutral with a pH of 7.0. Salts of strong acids are neutral. Magnesium Nitrate is salt of Nitric acid which is very strong acid.
Nitrate salts are formed when nitric acid reacts with a base or a metal. Examples include sodium nitrate (NaNO3) and potassium nitrate (KNO3).
When potassium nitrate is added with citric acid, a chemical reaction occurs that results in the formation of carbon dioxide gas, water, and potassium citrate. This reaction is an acid-base reaction between citric acid and potassium nitrate.
To make zinc nitrate, you would typically react nitric acid with zinc oxide or zinc metal. Nitric acid is the acid needed for the reaction, while zinc oxide or zinc metal can serve as the base to neutralize the acid and form zinc nitrate.
