Answer:

No need of using mnemonics.

Explanation:

What u can do is if u now hydrolysis of that salt u will get to know the pH

Eg:NaCl +H2O - >NaOH +HCL

If OH is present it is basic where as if H is present it is acidic element. If the element is acidic its pH is below 7 and if basic more than 7.

If more amount of H+ are present it is acidic and if more no. of OH- are present it is basic. Eg:CH3COOH it is an acidic compound

**All the non metals form acidic oxides and all the metal form basic oxides.
