Answer 2

The answer is; It is salt because it is formed by the reaction of an acid and a base.

Salt is composed of cations and anions (with a net charge of 0) joined together by ionic bonds attributed to their complementary charges. NaOH is an alkali salt because it forms an alkaline solution when dissolved in water – because it dissociates hydroxide ions.
