ā 7y agoAn acidic salt is one that will produce an acid pH when dissolved in water. It is a salt formed from a strong acid and a weak base. Example: NH4Cl (ammonium chloride). A basic salt is one that will produce an alkaline pH when dissolved in water. It is a salt formed from a strong base and a weak acid. Example: sodium acetate (CH3COONa).
