What about Licl?
and can someone tell me about bronsted acid and base in terms of electron transfer and h+ transfer?

KCl is neutral with it is dissolved. Neither of the ions can react with water to produce protons or hydroxide ions, so it gives you a neutral solution.

It's KCl......
and anyway......
I'm not so sure you're ready to delve into the common ion effect. A salt of a weak acid or base would have that phenomenon to consider. But KCl is the salt of a strong base and a strong acid. It won't exhibit a common ion effect. To make a long story short.....the pH of a KCl solution should remain near 7.0 and it should be neither acidic nor basic. It should be more or less neutral.

I would say acid because kcl combines with hydrogen from H2o and k stands by itself so it becomes HCL meaning hyrocholoric acid

KCl has a pH of approximately 5.2 therefore it is an acid

KCl + H2O = HCl + KOH
HCL is highly acidic, and potassium hydroxide is basic...so iam guessing it is neutral?!

your diluting it in H20, SO IT WILL BE Neutral. if you were diluting in saline water it would be acidic.
