Answer:

Being a weak acid and a strong base, where it is diluted in a neutral medium such as water, the basic medium predominates, almost alkaline pH.

Explanation:

The acidity of the solution, being weak, means that its pH is not so low, therefore it will be easier to reach the values of 7 or 7 where alkalinity or basity is indicated.
