Answer:

A. NaHCO₃

Explanation:

NaHCO₃ ⇒ NaOH + H₂CO₃

NaOH is a strong base and H₂CO₃ is a weak acid. Therefore, NaHCO₃ is a salt of a strong base-weak acid reaction. The salt is basic because carbonic acid (H₂CO₃) is a weak acid so it remains undissociated. So, there is a presence of additional OH⁻ ions that makes the solution basic.

Hope that helps.
