Solution

The correct option is C (i)
1. Salt of a strong acid and a weak base are acidic with pH value less than 7 because acid is strong which retain the pH value less then 7.
2. Salt of a weak acid and strong base are basic with pH value more than 7 because the base is strong hence pH of whole solution will be more than 7.
3. Salt of a strong acid and strong base is neutral because both are strong and cancels strong effects of each other, hence the pH will be 7.
