Hey buddy. ..
The resulting solution will be alkaline because KCN is a salt of a strong base and weak acid. It undergoes anionic hydrolysis when dissolved in water. HCN is weak acid because it gives less H+ ions in te solution while KOH is strong electrolyte and remains completely dissociated.
Thank you

When weak acids and bases react, the relative strength of the conjugated acid-base pair in the salt determines the pH of its solutions. The salt, or its solution, so formed can be acidic,neutral or basic. A salt formed between a strong acid and a weak base is an acid salt, for example NH4Cl.
