Nope, it is not.
ZnSO4 is an amphoteric salt, thus both weakly acidic and weakly basic.However the solution of Zn2+ and SO42- ions is slightly more acidic (pKa(Zn2+) = 9.66) than basic (pKb(SO42-) = 12.08).
S-
The formal charge of the SO42- ion is -2.
No, CH3O is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
No, ETOH (ethanol) is not a strong base. It is a weak base.

It contains the hydroxide ion, making it a base.
S-
It is in water (!!) a diprotic strong acid: H2SO4 + 2 H2O --> SO42- + 2 H3O+
The SO42- ion is named sulfate.
It is a strong base.
It is a strong base.
The formal charge of the SO42- ion is -2.
No, CH3O is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
No, ETOH (ethanol) is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
A salt is formed when a strong acid reacts with a strong base.
The formal charge of the sulfate ion (SO42-) is -2.
