    It is basic and has a pH of 9.8.

    Explanation:

    pOH = 4.2

    we will determine its pH.

    pOH + pH = 14

    pH = 14 - pOH

    pH = 14 - 4.2

    pH = 9.8

    According to pH scale the the pH lower than 7 is consider acidic while pH of seven is neutral and pH greater than 7 is basic.

    The given solution has pH 9.8 it means it is basic.
