    1) NH4ClO4: acidic

    2) NH4CN: basic

    3) LiF: basic

    4) KCN: basic

    5) LiNO3: neutral

    6) NH4Br: acidic

    7) SrBr2: neutral

    Explanation:

    Salt is an ionic compound formed by the neutralization reaction between an acid and a base. The cation of base and anion from an acid combines to form a salt while H + from acid and OH - from base forms water.

    1) NH4Cl4: is an acidic salt formed from neutralization reaction between strong acid and a weak base.

    2) NH4CN: is a basic salt formed from neutralization reaction between weak acid and weak base.

    3) LiF: basic salt formed from neutralization reaction between strong acid and strong base.

    4) KCN: basic salt formed from neutralization reaction between weak acid and strong base.

    5) LiNO3: neutral salt formed from neutralization reaction between strong acid and strong base.

    6) NH4Br: acidic salt formed from neutralization reaction between strong acid and weak base.

    7) SrBr2: neutral acid formed from neutralization reaction between

    strong acid and strong base.
