A solution is acidic if it has a pH below 7, basic if it has a pH above 7, and neutral if it has a pH of exactly 7.
ZnSO4 is neutral in aqueous solution because it does not exhibit acidic or basic properties.
basic
A salt solution can be acidic, basic, or neutral depending on the cation and anion present in the salt. For example, a solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) is neutral, while a solution of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) is acidic and a solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is basic.
Sodium chlorate is a salt compound and is neutral, neither basic nor acidic. When dissolved in water, it will form a neutral solution.
A solution that is neither acidic nor basic is considered neutral. This means that the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) is equal to the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in the solution. Water at room temperature is an example of a neutral solution.
