Question

Is water a salt?

As it is neither acid nor basic.

Answer 1

YES, the pH of water is 7 at room temperature so it is neutral.

What is pH?

In chemistry, pH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. It is approximately the negative of the base 10logarithm of the molar concentration, measured in units of moles per liter, of hydrogen ions.

But,

The pH of boiling water is slightly acidic

Means , boiling water has pH less then 7

That is 6.5–6.7

So boiling water is slightly acidic.

Sometimes It shows basic character in Some reactions



But watever it is At Room Temperature , Normal Water Is Neutral (i.e Neither Acidic Nor Neutral)
