K2CO3 is a salt of strong base and weak acid so it is basic in nature.
NaCl is a salt of strong base and strong acid so it is neutral in nature.
FeCl3 is a salt of weak base and strong acid so it is acidic in nature.
CuSO4 is a salt of weak base and strong acid so it is acidic in nature.
AlCl3 is a salt of weak base and strong acid so it is acidic in nature.
NH4Cl is a salt of weak base and strong acid so it is acidic in nature.
CH3COONH4 is a salt of weak base and weak acid so it is neutral in nature.
NaCN is a salt of strong base and weak acid so it is basic in nature.
Na2S is a salt of strong base and weak acid so it is basic in nature.
Na2B4O7 is a salt of strong base and weak acid so it is basic in nature.
